Nut creams are easy to make and easily transform a simple dessert into an elegant one by layering it with pudding, as we did in Sweet Potato Parfait. Cashews or walnuts may be substituted for the pecans.
Preheat Oven to 350 F. Place pecans in baking dish and toast 10 minutes. Transfer nuts to a food processor and grind to a paste. Add remaining ingredients and process until smooth and creamy.
