Honey gives these pies a different yet delicious flavor. I sometimes add chocolate for a special twist.Louise Covington, Bennettsville, South Carolina Ingredients:
12 eggs, lightly beaten |
1 cup dark brown sugar |
5 cups sugar |
2 cups dark corn syrup |
1-1/3 cups honey |
1 cup butter, melted |
3 tablespoons vanilla extract |
12 to 15 cups chopped pecans |
8 unbaked pastry shells (9 inches) |
Directions:
1. In large bowls, combine the first seven ingredients. Add pecans. Pour 2-1/4 cups filling into each pastry shell.
2. Bake at 300° for 40-50 minutes or until set (cover edges with foil during the last 15 minutes to prevent overbrowning if necessary). Cool on a wire rack. Refrigerate leftovers. Yield: 8 pies (8 servings each).
