Heart Of Dixie Pecan Pie

1 Cup dark corn syrup
3/4 Cup sugar
6 Tbl butter
3 large eggs
Pinch salt
2 Tbl Bourbon (you could omit, I use it))
2 Cups pecan halves or pieces
or a combination

Prepare and chill the dough.

For the filling, combine corn syrup and sugar in saucepan and stir to mix. Place over low heat and bring to a boil, without stirring. Remove from heat, add butter and allow butter to melt. In a mixing bowl, whisk eggs to break up and whisk in salt and Bourbon. Whisk in syrup and butter mixture, being careful not to over mix. Allow to cool while preparing bottom crust.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and set a rack in the lowest level. For the bottom crust, lightly flour the work surface and the dough and roll it to a 12-inch disk. Fold the dough in half and place it in the pan; unfold the dough and press it firmly into the pan. Trim away all but 1/2 inch excess dough at edge of pan. Fold dough under and flute edge.

Arrange pecans in crust. Skim foam from top of filling (or the top will have an unattractively mottled surface) and pour over pecans. With the back of a fork, press the pecans down into the filling so that they are immersed. Bake the pie for about 45 minutes, until the crust is baked through and the filling is set and well puffed in the center.

Cool the pie on a rack and serve warm or at room temperature.

David's notes: I add another 1/2 cup of pecans to this recipe, all the recipes I've tried call for 1 1/2 to 2 cups of pecans, I like a little more than that in mine. This guy is a great baker, I love his recipes.

The "Kentucky Derby" version of pecan pie (very similar to the recipe on the white Karo Syrup bottle) - aside from the optional Tbl. of bourbon - uses a scant half cup of chocolate chips (Nestle's recommended) in the filling mix. This raises pecan pie to a whole new level.

My husband really likes this one - it's not quite as tooth achingly sweet as some can be.
