  • 1 9-inch pie shell; unbaked
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup light corn syrup
  • ¼ cup brandy
  • 1 cup pecan halves
  1. Preheat oven to 350ºF.
  2. Beat the butter with an electric mixer to soften. Gradually add the sugar, then the eggs, one at a time, until well blended.
  3. Beat in the corn syrup and brandy until well blended. Pour into the pie shell and sprinkle with the pecans.
  4. Bake in a preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes, or until set around the edges. The filling will be puffy. Cool on a wire rack.
