Bourbon Soaked Pecan Pie
published by DA Cournean on May 28, 2009
Extra special pecan pie.
Ingredients
- 1 9-inch unbaked pie shell
- 1/4 cup bourbon
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup pecan halves
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 cup dark corn syrup
- 3 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Method
Preheat oven to 350°. Pour bourbon and vanilla over pecan halves; marinate 1 hour. In another bowl mix flour and sugar; stir in milk, butter, syrup, eggs and salt. Drain bourbon off pecans; discard bourbon ( in any way you deem fit)! Place pecans in pie shell; pour egg mixture over nuts. Bake 50 to 60 minutes or until knife inserted in custard comes out clean. Cool on rack.
A small dollop of french vanilla ice cream tops this off wonderfully!
