Pecan Pie Deluxe
A delicious delight from chef Marilyn Harris.
4 tbsp. unsalted, softened butter
1 cup sugar
1 tbsp. flour
1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup dark corn syrup
Pinch salt
4 large eggs
1-1/4 cup pecan halves
1 tsp. vanilla extract
9-inch unbaked pastry shell
Cream the softened butter in the electric mixer. Add the sugar and flour and cream until fluffy. Add both syrups and the pinch of salt. Beat until smooth. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Fold in the pecans and vanilla. Pour into the pastry shell. Place in the bottom one-third of a preheated 350°F oven for 1 hour and 10 minutes or until puffed and golden brown. Cool and chill.
Serves 8 to 10.
