Answer 3

Pecan Pie

"Unlike most pecan pies, this one does not require corn syrup."

INGREDIENTS:
1 cup light brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
1/2 cup butter
2 eggs
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped pecans

DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a large bowl, beat eggs until foamy, and stir in melted butter. Stir in the brown sugar, white sugar and the flour; mix well. Last add the milk, vanilla and nuts.
Pour into an unbaked 9-in pie shell. Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes at 400 degrees, then reduce temperature to 350 degrees and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until done.

Answer 4

Chocolate Pecan Pie

1 cup light corn syrup
3 each eggs
1/3 cup butter, melted
1 cup brown sugar
1 dash vanilla
1 pinch salt
2 cups pecans, pieces
1 each pie shell, uncooked
5 ounces milk chocolate, pieces

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

Combine the corn syrup, eggs and butter and whisk briskly. Add the brown sugar and mix well. Add vanilla, salt and pecans. Incorporate. Pour the mixture into the pie shell and drop in the chocolate pieces. Wrap a piece of foil around the edge of the pie to help keep the crust from over browning, and place in the oven on a small sheet pan for about one hour until the filling is set and the top is golden brown. Best served at room temperature or warmed slightly in the microwave. And a little Ice Cream on the side won't kill you either. Changed my mind, just leave the Ice cream Container here.
