I thought all along, you wanted a pecan pie with no corn syrup (Karo Syrup). The pie is really good, but I've never made it in a deep dish pie crust, hope it turns out. I like that it makes 2 regular pies, to share one with someone else. {#emotions_dlg.thumbup}

I always like to make a recipe as given to me, then next time I go doctoring it up if I want.

Another friend tasted my Sweet Potato Pie and wanted the recipe. She made it and said it didn't taste like mine. I asked did you change the recipe. Yup she did, no wonder it didn't taste like mine, she added some other spices to it. Oh well!!

Barbarainnc, I have never understood how people who have changed a recipe (by substituting or omitting ingredients, increasing/decreasing the amount of an ingredient, etc.) make comments, when rating it, such as: it wasn't good, not as expected, etc. SMH!!! Once, I even read a review of a VEGAN recipe by someone who changed it by adding a dairy product or two and was complaining about the outcome. LOL

Hey girl ! that's a fine pie, not runny or oozing syrup at all. Will keep that recipe !

Only thing I changed was a deep dish pan and upped the temp to 350`. So, had the one pie.

Thanks ! now, I have an alternative !

Seems like that Karo syrup recipe is 'weepy' , if you know what I mean I don't like all that runny syrup making the crust soggy. This one stands up better.

cheapest place I've found is Sam's Club. We don't have a Costco , so, can't speak for them
