Mystery Pecan Pie

All right, pecan pies

I know you've probably all had a pecan pie, but I've got a new pecan pie recipe for y'all

and this was sent to me from a friend from New Orleans

All right, now I've got three eggs busted. I'm gonna add some sugar

and I'm gonna add some white corn syrup. Now, a lot of people use white corn syrup for their pecan pies

a lot of people use the dark corn syrup. To me, it doesn't too much make a difference

as long as there's syrup in it. We're just gonna whisk this around

It doesn't have to be beat up too, too good. All right, and I'm gonna add the vanilla

All right. This is our syrup layer, and this is gonna be the surprise layer

that's in this pecan pie. And we're gonna start with cream cheese

A little bit more sugar, a little salt to cut the sweetness, you know what I mean

A little more vanilla, and one more egg. And we're just going to incorporate that together

A pecan pie is great for a beginner. So if you want to surprise the family pull this recipe out on them and see what happens All right we gonna add our cream cheese to the bottom of the pie Looks like melted white

chocolate, doesn't it? Just gonna kind of smear that around evenly. Alright, here we

go. Now I'm using a chopped pecan. You can use a whole one, but it makes it much

much easier to slice by the piece when your nuts are chopped up like this one

So you have to decide what you want. All right, now this is the standard filling

right here for a pecan pie. Now all we're gonna do is take this and pour it on top

of those nuts and then when this pie is done all the nuts will have risen to the

top. Now if I can just get it to the oven without spilling it. And you can see that

I'm gonna bake this in a raw pie shell because this pie's actually gonna bake for about 45 minutes

So you don't want to pre-bake your shell or it would get too brown. I got it in there without spilling it

So we're gonna come over here and check on this one. Oh my gracious

Look how good that looks. I'm actually going to put it over here on this corner because I got a great breeze coming

in that door. So I'm going to let that sit right there and cool
