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.

I've always used the Karo Recipe too... <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Thumbsup.gif" alt="" /> I put whole pecans on the top (to completely cover), and chop a small amount and mix it in with the filling...

I agree, that's how I do it. My grandmother wouldn't have approved of adding Bourbon, <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" /> but it sounds good to me-I'll try it next time I make it. How much do you add?
