Sandee's Pecan Pie



Ingredients:
Pie Crust:
(You can use store-bought!)
1 Cup Flour
1/3 Cup Shortening
1/2 tsp Salt
3 Tbsp ice-water
Hint: refrigerate everything for an hour first, Even your utensils!

Filling:
1/2 Cup Butter
2/3 Cup Sugar
1 Cup Corn Syrup
1 tsp Salt
3 Large Eggs
2 Cups Pecan Halves

Directions:
For the crust... (Trust me on this: Pillsbury pie crust. Unroll and fill. What could be simpler? Sigh. Oh, ok die-hards, this is for you.) Mix flour and salt. Cut in shortening until it resembles cornmeal. Sprinkle in water, a tablespoon at a time, mixing gently after each. Press the dough into a ball. Roll out and transfer to pie plate. Handle the dough as little as possible. (Can you say 'Pillsbury'?

For the filling... Beat together everything except pecans, until well blended. Stir in pecans. Pour into crust.

Bake at 375 degrees for 50 minutes - 1 hr
