55 Classic Christmas Dinner Recipes

These turned out very nicely. I was very happy with them. Super tasty.

Can I use a blender?

Definitely concur that the correct tweak is increasing butter from 2 Tbsp to 1 stick (8 Tbsp), and increase flour from 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup. I also tried 2 versions: 1 with finely chopped (blender) pecans, and another with both finely chopped and lightly chopped pecans. The lightly chopped pecans add the delicious texture and crunch that I remember from the Abilene Country Club. Filling the mini-muffin tins about half-full gives more crisp coating that carmelizes as it cooks. And produces more muffins! Thank you SO much for providing, and tweaking, this recipe.
