Southern Bourbon Pecan Pie Pillows Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°. In a large saucepan, combine butter, sugar and corn syrup. Cook over medium-low heat until sugar is dissolved; cool slightly. In a large bowl, whisk eggs, bourbon, vanilla and salt; slowly whisk in sugar mixture. Stir in pecans; pour into crust., Place on a baking sheet. Bake until a knife inserted in center comes out clean, 55-60 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Mix the white sugar, brown sugar, and butter together in a bowl. Stir in the corn syrup, eggs, and bourbon; fold in the pecans. Pour the mixture into the pie crust.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes; reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C); continue to bake until the pie is set, about 25 minutes more. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack before serving.

Steps:

• 1. In a large saucepan heat oil to 350 degrees on medium high heat, making sure to adjust heat to keep between 325-350 degrees while making filling.
• 2. In a medium saucepan combine brown sugar, corn syrup, butter, salt and 2 eggs. Stir well with a wooden spoon and place over medium high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, about 5-7 minutes. Reduce heat to low and stir in pecans and bourbon. Cook 9 minutes, stirring constantly, until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Pour mixture into heatproof bowl and cool to room temperature or place in refrigerator 15 minutes to cool and thicken further.
• 3. Place 1 Tablespoon filling in the middle of the first wonton wrapper. Beat the other egg with water in a small bowl and use your fingers to spread a thin layer around all four edges of filled wonton wrapper. Bring up two opposite points to the middle, pressing to seal top. Bring up the other two points to the middle, pressing to seal with the first two, making a point. Press all four edges firmly to seal completely, making a little pillow. Drop gently into hot oil and cook 1-1 ½ minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat with each wonton, frying 3 at a time, until all filling is used.
• 4. Place 2 little pillows on top of each plate. Sift tops lightly with powdered sugar and garnish each plate with ¼ of a cherry and 2 mint leaves and a drizzle of chocolate sauce on the plates.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C).
• Beat eggs slightly in medium bowl. Beat in sugar, and then blend in syrup, butter or margarine, vanilla, salt, and pecans. Pour filling into unbaked pie shell.
• Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and continue baking 35 to 40 minutes; the pie will be brown and slightly puffed.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In bowl, or blender is how my mom always made pecan pies, beat eggs with fork. Add sugar, corn syrup, butter w/chocolate, vanilla, and Bourbon. Stir till well blended. This is why the blender is a great and easy idea.
• Pour into pie crust. Stir pecans into mixture, till all are incorporated, or all covered with goo :).
• Bake for 50-55 min, or when knife inserted in center comes out clean.
• *To toast pecans put into dry skillet on medium-high heat. shake skillet around till they become brown and fragant and you can really notice their color change. This will take about 7-10 minute.
