Mark's Favorite Pecan Pie

Untitled design.png

Mark always asks me to make him his very own pecan pie for Thanksgiving. If anyone else is going to want a slice, then I better make a second pie because he’s not sharing. I’ve tried dressing this up with chocolate, caramel…all sorts of yummy concoctions. But he likes it pure and simple. This is it.

INGREDIENTS

1 uncooked 9-inch pie crust
2/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup butter, melted
1 cup corn syrup
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 eggs
1 cup pecan halves or broken pieces

DIRECTIONS

Heat oven to 375. Prepare pie crust. Beat sugar, butter, corn syrup, salt and eggs with hand beater in medium bowl. Stir in pecans. Pour into pastry-lined pie plate. Bake 40 to 50 minutes or until set.
