1 cup packed brown sugar
2/3 cup butter, melted

Fill your muffin tins, then top with a pecan half and a sprinkle of pecan dust (about ¼ tsp for a mini cupcake and ½ tsp for a large cupcake).
Bake until edges are browned and centers are set, about 18-20 minutes for a mini (I cooked mine 16 minutes) and 20-25 minutes for a fullsize cupcake.
Turn out of the pan immediately.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Before you start, here are two tips to make your cupcake pies turn out well:
Like the pecan pie they resemble these cupcakes can be a little sticky in the pan. Grease and flour your cupcake tins or spray with a baking spray. Dont let them rest in the pan too long. Turn them out onto a cooling rack as soon as you can.
For a more pie-like center, under-cook the cupcakes a little.
