Pecan pie is the quintessential southern dessert for a reason. That warm, sweet filling along with the crunch of the nuts creates a treat to drool over. Ingredients:
1/2 (15-oz.) package refrigerated piecrusts |
3 large eggs |
1/2 cup sugar |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
3 tablespoons butter, melted |
1 cup dark corn syrup |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
2 cups pecan halves |
walter's ultimate vanilla ice cream (optional) |
garnish: fresh mint sprigs |
Directions:
1. Fit piecrust into a 9-inch pieplate according to package directions. Fold edges under, and crimp.
2. Whisk together eggs and next 5 ingredients until thoroughly blended. Stir in pecans. Pour mixture into piecrust.
3. Bake at 350° on lower rack 40 minutes or until pie is set, shielding edges with aluminum foil after 15 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack. Serve with Walter's Ultimate Vanilla Ice Cream, if desired. Garnish, if desired.
