Ingredients

For the Pastry:

  • 1/2 C 1 stick butter, softened
  • 3 oz. cream cheese room temperature
  • 1 cup all-purpose gluten-free flour

  • 1/2 C gluten-free butterscotch chips
  • 1/4 C gluten-free chocolate chips
  • 2 Tbsp butter
  • 1 Tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 egg

Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees. Position the oven rack in the center of oven.
  • For the Pastry: In a medium mixing bowl, combine butter and cream cheese. Beat until smooth and creamy. Add flour; beat on low speed until combined. Shape dough into 24 balls. Press each ball evenly and up the sides of 24 ungreased mini muffin cups; set aside.
  • For the Filling: In a small saucepan, combine butterscotch chips, chocolate chips and butter. Heat and stir over low heat until melted. Remove from heat. Whisk in sugar and egg.
  • Spoon the chocolate butterscotch mixture evenly into the pastry shells, filling 2/3 of the way full.
  • Bake for 22-25 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is puffed.
  • Remove the pan from the oven and let the tassies cool in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, carefully remove the tassies from the pan.
  • Place cookies between sheets of wax paper in an airtight container. Store at room temperature.
