This recipe was handed down from my great-grandmother. It is truly the best that I've ever had! **in response to the first review, it is actually more of what most would call a chess pie - sorry!
Ingredients:
2 regular pie crusts (not the deep dish type - shallow)
1 cup packed light brown sugar
5 tablespoons margarine
3 tablespoons 2% low-fat milk
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
enough pecans, for top garnish (can do chopped or whole)
Directions:
1. While your oven is pre-heating to 350F, start melting the margarine over medium heat in a saucepan.
2. Once margarine is melted, remove saucepan from heat and stir in brown sugar.
3. Beat and then add the eggs and the rest of ingredients to the saucepan- stir well.
4. Pour evenly into the 2 pie shells.
5. Lightly sprinkle (or place if whole ones) pecans on top.
6. Once oven is pre-heated, bake on cookie sheet 350F for 30 minutes.
