Step 4: Filling: Beat together the egg, sugar, butter and vanilla until smooth.
Step 5: Divide half the pecans among the pastry-lined cups.
Step 6: Add the egg mixture and top with the remaining pecans.

Step 8: Cool and remove from the pans.
What we changed or couldn’t read (2)
- "Until Snot" in the source is read as "until smooth".
- The egg is printed as "Egg" with no number; 1 egg is a best guess.
