I'm such a slacker. I wanted to get this recipe up before Thanksgiving, but I didn't make it in time. Not even close. Here's hoping you can use it for a holiday dinner or something.
I originally got the recipe from the "Dear Abby" column in the newspaper. I've been making it for years and it's Peanut Head's favorite. Even better, it's super easy to make and practically fail safe.
Here's the recipe card.
I'm putting the finishing touches on the holiday bookmarks, and I promise to get those up for you before Friday. It would have been done sooner, but I'm a slacker. Sorry.
as punishment for being a slacker, you must send me a piece of that pie.
ReplyDeleteOh my beloved pecan pie...many a southerner have fought great wars for less than this tasty dish... Yours looks incredible!
ReplyDeletePecan pie is the best and easiest dessert of the season...heck...of any season:-)
ReplyDeleteYou a slacker..HA HA!! I think not. The pie is beautiful and looks delicious. Send me a piece also!!
ReplyDeleteooo! how do you make the little leaves on the edges? they are so cute!
ReplyDeletewe made your Oreo Truffles for my hubby's birthday this weekend and everyone LOVED them. they were sooooo good! This pie looks amazing too!
I'm thrilled that you posted this, even if you are late because you're a slacker. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is one of Hubby's favorite pies. The last time I made them was with my grandma and it was about 18-20 years ago. They were a little runny even though I did just what I was supposed to do. Not bad, but not perfect, which bothers me a great deal. I'm happy that you said it will be hard to mess up this recipe, although if it can be done, I might be the one.
I'll be making it for Christmas. I didn't have time for Thanksgiving, because I was being a slacker. So you're all good and everything.
oh thank you! This is going to make my husbands day! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThat pecan pie does sound really easy. Are you sure you can't mess it up???? I will probably be able to! My dad loves pecan pie and I think I will try to make it for Christmas for him.
ReplyDeleteHow did you make the leaves on the edge? It is a beautiful pie!
ReplyDeleteMMmmmm... PECAN PIE.... How I love thee...
ReplyDeleteThat pie looks yummy!! And those leaves are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteOhh, that looks fab! My dads 50th b-day is coming up and I'm gonna make this for his dessert. Thanks for the recipe! Can you believe that I just made homemade cinnamon rolls for the first time this week? Not by myself, but that still counts. Yah, I'm kitchenretarded. And how'd you do the leaves? They're so fancy pants... :) Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteThanx for sharing your recipe, I'll sure try it out when my sister comes to town.

Okay, so now you're making me feel totally inadequate. Never mind that I can't make a pie (never can handle the crust) but the little leaves on the crust....no fair. Looks too good to eat actually.
