This is really "Chess Cake"
2 C brown sugar
1 C white sugar
1/2 lb butter
6 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
2 unbaked pie shells
whipped cream

-Boil sugar and butter together. Beat eggs well and blend with hot syrup, slowly as you beat. Divide and sprinkle with pecans. Bake at 350 for 20 min and then 400 for 15 minutes. Pies will crack and be jelly like. Serve with collar of whipped cream.
Makes 2 pies
note from my grandmother: you don't need many nuts-or even any-this is marvelous without them.
