| Are you ready to make the best tasting pie crust in the
world? Well then, let's get started! Note: This recipe makes enough crust
for two pecan pies. If this is your first time making a pecan pie, I
recommend making this much because it allows you to be more liberal with the
pie dough; this way you don't end up pasting the scraps back on for an edge
or rolling the dough out too thin. |
