I made this for Thanksgiving and it was terrific! Just a tiny bit less sweet than regular pecan pie but a great mix of the two favorites. Make sure not to cook this any higher than 350 degrees. I had two pies to bake, one on 400 and this one on 350, so I decided to bake them both at 375, and this one burned just a little in one of the corners.
