Ingredients

1 cup white corn syrup
1 cup dark brown sugar
1/3 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup butter or margarine, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 whole eggs, slightly beaten
9-inch unbaked pie shell
1 heaping cup whole pecans, shelled
whipped cream or ice cream, optional

Instructions

Combine syrup, sugar, salt, butter and vanilla, mix well. Add slightly beaten eggs. Pour into unbaked pie shell. Sprinkle pecans all over. Bake at 350 degrees F for 45-50 minutes for a gas oven. If using an electric oven, add 15-20 minutes to baking time. Test pie after 45 minutes. If a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, it’s done. When cooled, top with whipped cream or ice cream if desired.
