• *I like to brown the meat and onion, drain, then put all ingrediants in crockpot and cook on low for hours so the flavors all flow together.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spread pecans out on a baking sheet.
• Bake pecans in the preheated oven until fragrant and lightly toasted, 5 to 10 minutes. Cool completely and chop in a food processor.
• Beat butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer until creamy. Add sugar and beat until light and fluffy; beat in egg yolk, vanilla extract, and salt. Slowly mix pecans into butter mixture. Stir flour into pecan mixture until dough begins to come together.
• Roll the dough into a ball and divide it in half. Roll each dough half into a 1 1/2-inch thick log. Wrap each log in wax paper and refrigerate, 4 hours to overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Unwrap dough logs and cut into 1/3-inch thick slices. Transfer slices to the prepared baking sheet.

Steps:

• Season both sides of the cube steaks with kosher salt and cracked black pepper.
• Heat the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large skillet over med-high heat.
• Sauté the steaks for 4 minutes, then turn and finish cooking for 3 more minutes or until done to your liking. Move steaks to a plate and cover with foil.
• Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in the skillet over med-high heat and loosen any stuck bits of meat with a spatula.
• When hot, add the shallots and mushrooms with a loose attempt to keep them in a single layer as much as possible. Don't stir for the first 2 minutes to give them a chance to caramelize on one side, then stir periodically for another minute or two until mushrooms are deep golden brown.
• Add the minced garlic and sauté until it becomes soft, about one minute.
• Add the cream and the steak juice from the cube steak plate and reduce the mixture by one-third. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Finally, add the basil, stir briefly, then plate the steaks with a generous portion of sauce on top.
