    Cream butter and cheese together until very well incorporated. Add flour, salt, and cayenne pepper, and blend thoroughly. Roll dough out onto a lightly floured surface, to approximately 1/2 inch thickness. Cut out rounds with a standard round biscuit or cookie cutter. Lightly press a whole pecan into the center of each round. Transfer to ungreased baking sheet and bake 8-10 minutes, or until puffed and very lightly colored.
