1 cup sugar

1 cup corn syrup
4 eggs
8 tablespoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups pecans, chopped

1. Preheat oven to 350°.
2. In a large bowl combine the sugar, salt, and corn syrup.
3. Add the eggs one at a time.
4. Stir in the melted butter and vanilla.
5. Spread the pecans in the bottom of an unbaked pie crust and pour the filling over the pecans.
