Instructions
Heat oven to 350F. Spray 36 mini muffin cups with cooking spray.
Unroll crusts on lightly floured surface. Using 2 1/2-inch round cutter, cut 13 rounds from each crust. Reroll scraps and cut an additional 10 rounds. Press rounds in bottoms and up sides of muffin cups.
In medium bowl, mix corn syrup, brown sugar, melted butter, salt and eggs until well blended. Stir in pecans and chocolate chips. Spoon 2 teaspoons filling into each crust-lined cup.
Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling is set. Cool 5 minutes; remove from pans to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
With small sharp knife, cut small hole in side of each pie, near the bottom. Insert 1 lollipop stick into each pie no more than halfway.
Recommended wine: Riesling, Sparkling Wine, Zinfandel
Riesling, Sparkling Wine, and Zinfandel are my top picks for Southern. In general, there are a few rules that will help you pair wine with southern food. Food-friendly riesling or sparkling white wine will work with many fried foods, while zinfandel is great with barbecued fare. The King Frosch Riesling Auslese All Natural German with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 19 dollars per bottle.
