Everyone in my family loves this cookie. They're like little pecan pies and you can make them with pecans instead of walnuts if you choose. You will need a mini muffin pan for this recipe.

Rosemary Pull-Apart Dinner Rolls
As far as holiday dinner rolls go, these are pretty lean. You can increase the amount of melted butter and toss in a egg or two, but since these are generally going to be eaten with fairly rich food, I prefer a lighter approach.
