We loved this! I used Recipe #51537 for the crust. This recipe is perfect for those times when we want pecan pie (practically always, lol) but don't have enough pecans. We did have about 1/4 cup chopped pecans left from something else and I sprinkled those on top. It set beautifully and was even better the next day. Thanks for posting! We will definitely make this again :D -
A very nice pie...a hit at work. FIVE people asked for the recipe! I added a little extra vanilla extract for oomph. — -
Yummy! I've always loved the filling to pecan pies, but not the pecans. This was a wonderful alternative for me! I made this exactly as directed and it turned out wonderful! Thanks for posting such a great recipe, Izzy!
