PIE CRUST

PPie Crust

My favorite way to make pecan pie…

Yield: 2 x 10-inch pie crusts

PREP IT!      

  • 2 cups Sugar, granulated

  • ½ cup Brown sugar, dark

  • 1 teaspoon Salt

  • 2 cups Corn syrup, light or dark

  • 2/3 cup Butter, salted, melted

  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract

  • ¼ cup Whiskey

  • 6 large Eggs

  • 3 cups Pecans, chopped

  • 1-2 bags Candied or glazed pecans, whole

  • 2 x 10-inch pie crusts (any kind)

MAKE IT!

  1. Whisk all ingredients together except candied pecans.

  2. Distribute filling into desired pie crusts. Top pies neatly with whole candied pecans

  3. Bake at 350F for 45-50 minutes or until filling is set.

Tip: Enjoy warm or at room temperature with ice cream or fresh vanilla whipped cream.

For chocolate pecan pie, melt ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips with the 2/3 cups butter before adding it to the filling and swap 1 cup pecans with ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips and ½ cup milk chocolate chips.

Reheat leftovers: in the oven or in the microwave.
