Serves/Makes:1 9" deep crust pie-8 servings

Ingredients

• 1 cup (225 ml) Karo Dark Corn Syrup
• 3 eggs
• 1 cup (225 ml) of sugar
• 2 tbsp (30 ml). butter, melted
• 1 tsp (5 ml). vanilla extract
• 1-1/2 cups (350 ml) of pecans
• 1 unbaked 9" deep dish pie crust

Preparation

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees (175 C.).
• Stir the first 5 ingredients thoroughly, using a spoon.
• Mix in the pecans.
• Pour into pie crust
• Bake on center rack of oven for 55 to 60 minutes.
• Cool for 2 hours.
• Tips: Pie is done when center reaches 200 degrees (90 C.). Tap center surface of pie lightly, it should spring back when done. For easy clean up, spray pie pan with cooking spray. If pie crust is over browning, cover edges with foil.
• High Altitude Adjustments: Reduce sugar to 2/3 cup (150 ml) and increase butter to 3 tbsp (45 ml). Reduce oven to 325 degrees (175 C.).
• Sissy's Note: Sometime I add 1 tbsp (15 ml) of cornmeal to the mixture, this firms it up some.
• Sometimes I add a dash of salt.
• Also, Always cool on a cooling rack, it helps keep the crust from becoming soggy.
