Crust
1 refrigerated pie crust (from 15-oz box), softened as directed on box
4 foil tart pans (4 1/2 to 5 inch)
Coarse sugar or granulated sugar
Filling
1 egg
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup light corn syrup
2 tbsp coffee-flavored liqueur or cold strong coffee
Dash salt
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup pecan halves
1/2 cup whipped cream or whipped topping, if desired
Heat oven to 375. On lightly floured surface, unroll pie crust. With 4 1/2-inch round cutter, cut 4 rounds from crust. Fit rounds in bottoms and 1/2 inch up sides of foil tart pans. With fork, prick bottoms and sides generously. Place pans on ungreased cookie sheet.

Meanwhile, in medium bowl, beat egg with wire whisk. Beat in 1/4 cup sugar, the corn syrup, liqueur, salt and vanilla.
Remove partially baked tart shells and baked stars from oven. Remove stars from cookie sheet. Arrange pecans evenly in tart shells. Pour egg mixture evenly over pecans. Return tarts to oven; bake 16 to 20 minutes longer or until crusts are golden brown and center is set. Cool on cooling rack 30 minutes. Remove tarts from pans. To serve, top each tart with whipped cream, and garnish with pie crust stars.
