Pioneer Woman's Pecan Pie

The Pioneer Woman is always coming up with wonderful concoctions. Over Thanksgiving I made her pecan pie and it was a huge hit. You can also find this recipe on her site with lots of other tasty treats!

Ingredients:
1 whole unbaked pie crust
1 c white sugar
3 T brown sugar
1/2 t salt
1 c corn syrup (I used light colored)
1/4 t vanilla
1/3 c melted butter (salted)
3 whole eggs (beaten)
1 c (heaping) chopped pecans

Directions:
Mix white sugar, brown sugar, salt, corn syrup, vanilla, butter, and eggs in a bowl
Pour chopped pecans in the bottom of the unbaked pie shell
Pour syrup mixture over the top
Cover the top and crust lightly with foil - bake at 350 for 30 minutes
Remove foil and bake another 20 min being careful not to burn the crust or pecans

Pie should not be overly jiggly when you remove it form the oven! If it shakes a lot, cover with foil and bake for an additional 20 min or until set.

Allow to cool for several hours or overnight.
