RECIPE BACKSTORY
I was helping to write a cookbook for my church and I ran into a dilema about which pecan pie recipe to use. I have 6 different ones and they all looked wonderful. My mom pulled out a very old postcard that she had received from a friend many years ago. It had this recipe on the back and I haven't had to wonder which recipe to use ever since because this one is simply the best! Even the beginner baker doesn't have to be afraid to try this one, it's that simple and delicious.
