Super Pecan Pie

My best friend's mother gave me this recipe when I was a teenager. It was the most delicious pie I'd ever eaten. Everyone loves it so much, they insist I make it on Thanksgiving AND Christmas!

• Ready In: 1 hr
• Serves: 8

Ingredients

• 3  eggs
• 1  cup dark corn syrup
• 1⁄3 cup butter, melted
• 1  cup sugar
• 1  teaspoon vanilla
• 1⁄8 teaspoon salt
• 1  cup pecan halves
• 1  unbaked pie shell (may use frozen or refrigerated rolled pie crust)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Beat eggs slightly.
3. Mix in next five ingredients.
4. Lay pecans on the bottom of pie shell. (Prevents pecan halves from breaking, which can happen if stirred into the filling mixture.).
5. Pour liquid mixture on top of pecans.
6. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes, then at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
7. Cool on wire rack.
