Sounds great.


I don't understand something in the ingredients list: It states "1 cup brown sugar Karo syrup." Does this mean one cup of each or....?


Great recipe, and especially with the tart shells!


Molly62 - There is a product called Karo Syrup with Brown Sugar. You'll see it with the regular clear Karo.


Lesliegw,

Thanx for the clarification on the Karo syrup! I've never heard of it with brown sugar, but I will search for it since I want to make the "best pecan pie ever"!


I'd never heard of it either - because I rarely use Karo syrup. But you go find it and I promise that you WILL make the best pecan pie ever! :)


And I get my eggs out of a chickens ass woohoo!


Wow lisapisa, you've got some anger management problem going on there. It's just a pie for goodness sake.


Great tasty recipe thanks high5
