Prep
Time: 2 hours. Cook Time: 1 hour. Level: Easy.
Serves
8-10
Ingredients:
1 cup Whole Pecans
3 /4 cup Chopped Pecans
2 tbls. Unsalted Butter, (melted)
1/2 cup Granulated White Sugar
1/2 cup Dark Corn Syrup
1/4 cup Light Corn Syrup
3 large Eggs
1 tspn. Pure Vanilla Extract
2 tbls. Maker's Mark(r)
1 Pre-Baked 9-inch Pie Shell*
Procedures:
1. Preheat oven to 350æF. Put chopped
nuts into the bottom of the prebaked pie shell and set
aside.
2.
Combine melted butter, granulated sugar, the dark and
light corn syrups, eggs, vanilla extract and bourbon.
3.
Pour this mixture on top of chopped nuts. Place a decorative
row of whole pecans on the top. Bake about 50-60 minutes
on the center rack of the oven or until cooked through.
The pie will spring back on top but still giggle a little
until it cools. If the top is getting too dark before
the center is done, tent with aluminum foil.
4.
Cool for a minimum of three hours. The pie is best made
the day before.
*Note:
Pre-bake the pie shell according to package directions
at least two hours beforehand to allow time to cool.
