I always make several desserts for thanksgiving and this one was new this year. It dissappeared first. I only got a wiff of it! I am going to make this again for Christmas only I think I better make 2. It was the best pecan pie I have ever had!

I saw this made on your show and was sold after hearing the part where "you cannot mess up this pie," since it's the first thing I've ever cooked. I took it to a friend's for Thanksgiving and it was hit. It was so easy to make and everyone loved it. The only problem now is they think I can actually cook! Maybe if I stick to the fool-proof recipes I can fool them for a bit longer.

Made for Christmas last year after seeing it on the show. Needless to say I've been asked to bring two for Thanksgiving this year.

I made this for the firefighters at my hubbys station and they loved it. Unfortunately, I didn't get any because they devoured all of it!
