I promised four weeks of Thanksgiving pie, so here is the third: No-Bake Pecan Pie {For Two}
I am an absolute fan of pies. I even think it’s the best baked (or not) good possible. Don’t you? They are so amazing and have everything you can possibly want:
Usually a flaky or crispy crust
A gooey or smooth filling
Flavoooooor
If like me, you absolutely love pies, please check-out my newest recipes {For One or Two} & especially to celebrate Thanksgiving:
You don’t need a whole story for this pis (or maybe you do 🙂 ) so I’ll tell you how I created it in a few words: I had baked a pie, and the filling was bubbly and instead of setting, crashed in the pie. I wasn’t about throwing it away because as you may know I simply can’t stand waste. So I had to think quickly. I reviewed an icing I wrote on one of my notebook, and it seems to be pretty much what I was looking for: it’s not runny, but not too hard nor too sweet. And it worked. So I guess that’s a good alternative if like me you’ll find yourself in need of a no-bake filling situation. But you’ll have to be in possession of a fully baked crust though.
And no need to say, or I wouldn’t be writing this recipe, it was delicious.
How to make this Recipe?
- One fully baked crust (take this crust) and do everything like the recipe says except there’s no filling 😉
- Evaporated milk
- Brown sugar
- Butter
- Confectioner’s sugar
- Pecans
In a medium saucepan on medium heat, bring evaporated milk and brow sugar to a boil. Then whisk in the butter and remove from the heat. Add the confectioner’s sugar and whisk vigorously. Add pecans and pour into the baked crusts. Place in the fridge for 15 minutes. You’re done!
