Goo Goo Pecan Pie
Ingredients:
4 Pecan Goo Goos, chopped 4 eggs, beaten 1 1/2 C light corn syrup 1/2 C sugar 1 tsp vanilla 1 tsp salt 1 1/2 C pecans 1 unbaked pie crust fitted into a 9-inch, deep-dish pie plate
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350˚F.
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, corn syrup, sugar, vanilla, and salt. Once combined, fold in Goo Goo pieces and half of the pecans. Pour mixture into pie crust and arrange remaining pecans on top. Bake about 45-55 minutes, or until set.
Note: refrigerating Goo Goos for at least 15 minutes before chopping will make doing so much easier and cleaner
