In baking you need to always have the ingredients measured precisely. Use a knife to level the flour, salt or baking powder since baking is relying on the chemistry. When you have an ingredient 'heaping' you have changed the chemistry!

Pecan Pie

This recipe for Pecan Pie makes an extra special dessert. Pie Crusts Recipe

1 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
¼ tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
1/3 cup melted butter
4 eggs
1¼ cups pecan halves or broken pecans
1 unbaked 9” pie crust

Preheat oven to 350. In a large bowl, mix the brown sugar, corn syrup, vanilla, and salt with the eggs and beat well. Add in the melted butter and gently fold in the nuts with a spatula.

Pour this into the unbaked pie shell and bake for 45 - 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Cool the pie on a wire rack so air circulates under the pie, preventing it from becoming soggy.
