My husband loves this pie. Being a southern girl I love to cook, but unfortunately my mother did not. Being a new housewife invited to the thanksgiving dinner of a family of fine southern cooks, I was terrified. Five years ago they told me to bring desert... Thinking, I'm sure that it was the only thing I couldn't mess up. Five years later my husband, brother, & MOTHER IN LAW ( :) haha ) ask for this pie by name. Thanks for teaching me what my mama didn't.

Pam let me know how it turns out!

I'm gonna try it, AGAIN. My favorite is "Pecan Pie". I TRY to cook all the time but can NOT cook a Pecan Pie. For some reason, it is always runny. I bet it's because I over beat it. I'm gonna try it "One More Time". If this is it, I can't thank you enough!!! Thanks again, Pam

Hello Mary,

I am so anxious to cook this pie for Thanksgiving. It will be my first pie so this probably is a dumb question but Im doing store purchased crust. Should it be a fresh verses a frozen crust?

Thank You

I was wondering what Nut could I use instead of pecan in a pecan pie. A few of my family members don't like pecans. :/

2010-11-18T07:55:05.168-06:00

I made your recipe yesterday came out great. I used this crust instead of the freezer type.

•6 ounces cream cheese
•1 cup butter
•2 cups all-purpose flour

In a medium mixing bowl cream together cream cheese and 1 cup butter until light and fluffy. Blend in flour, 1/2 cup at a time forming a smooth dough.

Thank You!

Mary,

Thank you for posting such wonderful recipes! I have tried others of yours in the past, which is exactly why I came here FIRST to look for a special recipe to take to my grandchildren on Gramma's Surprise Visit last weekend. My daughter loved it, the grandkids (I call them "My Perfects") had seconds, and the love-of-my-life was very happy with it too! (OH! I even got a piece!!)

Just wanted to let you know how great it turned out for me too - the longest thing was cracking all those pecans (I pronounce it "pe-cahns", not "pe-CANS" like some people do) - I'm thinking paying a little bit more for a bag of already shelled pecans would be very worth it!

Thank you again, I just wanted to let you know you added so much to our family's Valentine's Day weekend~ I appreciate so much your wonderful page with such great recipes you share! (I have met people before who keep their best recipes to themselves, you share yours, God bless you!)

So how do ~you~ pronounce pecan? :) I say 'pe-con' or 'peh-con' LOL
Do people really place the pecans to look nice and neat? That's something I never thought of..but then again..I never would.

My mom was the pecan pie queen when I was growing up (coulda had something to do with those pecan trees in the yard!) I never cared for them much then, but now I'd be tickled to have one. Yours looks just delicious :)
