Sticky Pecan Bites
24 pecan halves
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
2 TBSP. unsalted butter, very soft
Preheat oven to 400F. Grease a 24 cup mini muffin tin with baking spray. Set aside.

On a lightly floured surface, with a floured rolling pin, roll the dough into a 12-x-7 inch rectangle.
Spread the dough with soft butter and sprinkle with brown sugar.
Start at one short end, roll the dough tightly. Gently stretch the dough to lengthen the roll. Cut each roll crosswise into 24 pieces.
Place each piece in a muffin cup, cut side up.
Bake 12-15 minutes, until well browned. Rotate pan halfway through.
Immediately turn the buns out onto a sheet of parchment on a heat proof surface.
