Southern Pecan Pie

Comment:

This recipe came to me on a postcard from someone travelling in the southern United States, so I figure it is pretty authentic.

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup butter
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup dark corn syrup
• 3 eggs beaten
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1/2 cup pecan halves
• 1 9" unbaked pie crust

Directions:

Cream butter and sugar together until fluffy.

Add next four ingredients.

Sprinkle pecans on bottom of pie shell.

Pour the filling over pecans.

Bake at 450°F for 10 minutes, reduce temperature to 350°F and bake 35 minutes longer.

Outer edge of filling should be set, center slightly soft of until knife inserted in center comes out clean.
