Mini Pecan Tartlets

• 1 cup Margarine, Divided
• 1/2 cups Sugar
• 2 whole Egg Yolks
• 1 teaspoon Almond Extract
• 2 cups Flour
• 1/3 cups Light Corn Syrup
• 1 cup Confectioners Sugar
• 2 cups Chopped Pecans

1. Preheat oven to 400F.
2. Combine 1/2 cup margarine and 1/2 cup sugar. Stir in 2 egg yolks, 1 teaspoon almond extract, and 2 cups of flour. This will form something similar to cookie dough.
3. Spray tiny tart shells or a mini muffin pan with cooking spray. Press about a tablespoon's worth of dough into each container. Press the dough as evenly as possible, and form a crust. Make sure to press down the middle with your thumb or finger, or the shell will puff up.
4. Bake at 400F for 8 to 10 minutes. Don't let them brown.
5. Let the shells cool and start on the filling.
6. In a medium saucepan, bring remaining 1/2 cup margarine, 1/3 cup light corn syrup, and 1 cup confectioner sugar to a boil. Boil for about a minute. Take off the heat and stir in 2 cups of finely chopped pecans.
7. Spoon the mixture into the shells and bake at 350F for 5 minutes.
