Instructions
1: Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a muffin tin with nonstick spray. 2: Slice your cookie dough roll into 1/2 inch pieces and place each slice in the muffin tin. Press down. Bake for 11-13 minutes. 3: While that is baking, make your pie filling by combining butter, brown sugar, pecans, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, salt, nutmeg, and vanilla on medium heat, stirring consistently. Allow to bubble for 2-3 minutes and then remove from heat and add heavy cream and mix until combined. Allow it to cool for 5 minutes. 4: Once the cookies are done, take a spoon or shot glass to create little cup pockets in your cookies while they're still hot. Fill with pecan pie filling. 5: Place in refrigerator for 20-30 minutes to allow filling to harden. Top with whipped cream and cinnamon. Enjoy.View original recipe
