List of Ingredients




Texas Pecan Pie

1/2 cup melted butter
1 cup light brown sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
3 eggs, slightly beaten
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-1/3 cups pecan pieces
Unbaked pie shell

Preheat oven to 450°F.
Mix together the butter, eggs, brown sugar, corn syrup, salt and vanilla. Whisk until smooth. Put pecans in pie shell, pour wet mixture into pie shell. Bake 10 minutes at 450°F; then lower heat to 350°F and bake an additional 40 to 45 minutes.

Elaine asked that I use only part dark Karo. I switched the recipe around some, using white sugar, half dark Karo and half light. For my family, I use dark syrup and white sugar, as did Michael's Mamaw. Also, to me, it's very important that you put all the filling ingredients in the work bowl of a mixer and let them work for about ten to fifteen minutes on low. This insures that the sugar and salt are well disolved and mixed into the liquid ingredients.
