Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Place a slice of butter in each cup of a 12-cup muffin tin. Top with brown sugar, then the pecans.

Unfold a sheet of puff pastry onto a cutting board. Gently rub 1/2 tsp cinnamon onto one side of one sheet. Cut into 6 strips (each about 1 1/2" wide). Holding the strip at each end, loosely twist, then shape into a coil. Tuck the end under the center and place on top of the nuts. Repeat with the remaining pastry and cinnamon.

Bake until the pastry is puffed and golden brown, 20 to 22 minutes. Remove from the oven and immediately invert onto a baking sheet. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
