3 eggs, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons rum
3/4 cup pecans, coarsely chopped

Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add corn syrup, maple-flavored syrup, eggs, and rum; beat well. Stir in chopped pecans.

Brandied Butter Pastry: Combine flour and salt; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal. Sprinkle brandy over mixture, and stir until particles cling together when pressed gently.
Shape dough into a ball, and chill 10 minutes before rolling out.
For a baked crust, prick pastry with a fork. Bake at 425 degrees F for 12 minutes or until golden.

It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

This pie is the greatest tasting pie I've ever made and I really struggle with making pies. Being a Southerner it's hard to hold your head high if you can't make good pecan pies! Thanks for saving me.

I don't have good luck with pies but this recipe never fails me. I increase or decrease the amount of rum depending on who's going to be eating it.
