Country Rebel Recipes

If you ask us it’s always pie season and we can’t wait to dig into all of our favorites. In fact, we’re so excited that we didn’t wait! We took the flavors of old fashioned southern pecan pie and turned it into an irresistible truffle.

The best part about these treats is that there is no oven required. Can’t bake? No problem! Don’t want a sink full of dishes to wash after making dessert? We’ve got you covered! The hardest part about making these truffles is waiting to eat them. But, be prepared. When they are ready to eat, you won’t be able to eat just one. Give them a try and let us know what you think!
