Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Process 3/4 cup pine nuts, the sugar, almond paste, and vanilla in a food processor until fine crumbs form. Add egg; pulse to combine. Add flour, baking powder, and salt; process just until dough comes together.
- Roll dough into 3/4-inch balls. Roll balls in remaining 1 1/4 cups pine nuts, gently pressing to coat. Space 2 inches apart on parchment-lined baking sheets.
- Bake until cookies begin to turn golden brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool completely on sheets on wire racks.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray large baking sheet with vegetable oil spray. Finely grind 1/2 cup toasted pine nuts with sugar and flour in processor. Transfer to bowl. Mix in butter, egg whites and vanilla.
- Form 3 cookies by spooning 1 tablespoonful batter for each onto prepared baking sheet, spacing 4 inches apart. Using knife, spread each to 4-inch round. Sprinkle each round with 1 teaspoon untoasted pine nuts.
- Bake cookies until golden around edges, about 10 minutes. Working quickly, run thin metal spatula around edges of cookies to loosen. Drape each cookie over inverted 3/4-cup custard cup, molding and crimping sides of cookie to shape (cookie cups will be shallow). Transfer cookies to rack. Repeat with remaining batter and untoasted nuts, spraying baking sheet with vegetable oil spray between batches. Cool before using. (Can be prepared 3 days ahead. Store at room temperature in airtight container.)
LITTLE NUT CUPS
I learned this recipe from a childhood friend whose mother made these for family parties and get-togethers. They are a great Christmas or special occasion cookie. My Mother makes hers with walnuts, I prefer pecans for a mini pecan pie taste.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, mix together the butter, cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Stir in the flour and mix thoroughly. The dough should be somewhat firm. Roll into 36 small balls, place them on a plate and refrigerate for one hour.
- Make the filling in a medium bowl. Beat the eggs, melted butter, vanilla and brown sugar until smooth and well blended. Stir in the nuts. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Press the chilled dough balls into the bottom and up the sides of tart pans or mini muffin cups. Fill each shell with filling almost to the top. Use a squeeze top honey container if you have one, to drip about 1/2 teaspoon of honey onto the top of each cup.
- Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, until crust is lightly browned. Allow to cool in the tins completely before removing.
