I need to go out and get some sugar now (only had Splenda!) Maybe I'll do half and half as I'm diabetic and don't want too much sugar, but love this recipe! ;) Thank you for letting me know!!

I wish I could tell you that you could but unfortunately, Splenda isn't the best thing on earth to bake with. Substituting it in baked goods requires you experiment with extra wet ingredients and even then you will most likely have a tenderness issue with your final product. However, I'm sure there is always a way to modify, but it will likely take some trial and error (and I hate the error part as much as the next person!). Splenda is a great substitute for "wet" recipes such as custards, puddings, pie fillings, etc. I use it in my Homemade Banana pudding and sweet potato casseroles, in addition to most pies. I wish I had better news!! Thank you for reading though!!! Gratefully, Christy :) Hey Jo and Christy!

Is Pecan Pie Muffins able to be cooked by making pecan sticks? The dough is spread on a jelly roll pan and brushed with a egg white mixture. What will happen if I just spread this muffin mix on a broad cookie sheet and cook until done? The dough is cut into strips while it is still warm, otherwise it will break into pieces when cut. I don't want to waste my delicious Pecan Pie Muffins by spreading it on a large cookie sheet and it not work..... Christy,

I've made these Pecan PIe Muffins and I can't stop!!! No kidding, I even eat the dough before it's cooked, it's just addictive, whether it's cooked, raw, hot to room temperature, to refrigerated and cool....my friends are in the same sad shape and we're outgrowing our clothes! Just kidding, but not by much, this is a wonderful recipe and you can make it dressed up by adding frostings, which it doesn't need, or served plain, which is our favorite. I don't know to thank you or not for this recipe, I have to at least triple each batch, 9 muffins won't last until their cooled. I do love your recipes, so easy and delightful to serve in a formal setting or to a group of friends just sitting around the kitchen table comparing cookbooks. Your site has quickly become our most favorite site, and you've become a member of the family. May God bless you and yours. HELP! I’ve made these Pecan PIe Muffins and I can’t stop!!!

I just had to tell you that last night for dinner I made the Country Casserole. My picky eaters (my daddy, 9 year old son, & 5 year old daughter) really liked it. They told me I could make it again. I also made another batch of the muffins. I had them ready to go in the oven as soon as we sat down to dinner. After I got them out of the oven & placed them on the cooling rack everyone was finished eating. I sat them in the middle of the kitchen table. I looked over & my daddy had one already in his hands splitting it open & smothering it with butter. All he could do was roll his eyes & nod his head. The next thing I know my husband had gotten the vanilla ice cream out. He had put the ice cream on the muffin. After eating one smothered in butter & the other drowning in ice cream, he still is not sure which he liked better. Out of 18 muffins, I think we only had about 10 left. My daddy told me that I could make these anytime I wanted. Hey Christy! I just had to tell you that last night for dinner I made the Country Casserole.
