PW’s Pecan Pie

Thanksgiving is just around the corner!  Nine days and counting!  I ran across this recipe yesterday and had to share.  I will confess, I have never made pecan pie.  I guess it’s safe to say I’ve always been a little intimidated and scared that it wouldn’t come out well.  After seeing Pioneer Woman’s recipe, I thought, now what’s so hard about this?  I’ve made many other things that are much more complicated that this!  I CAN DO THIS!  So, I will be giving it a try!  Thanks, Pioneer Woman!

I thought you would also like this recipe for Sweet Potato Casserole.  I make it each year for Thanksgiving and Christmas.  Family gatherings, pot lucks, work Christmas parties, you name it.  This is the go-to dish that I make for it all.  There is NEVER any left over!
