I would recommend making a trial before you make it for a crowd.
Some tips: First, the crust is shortbread not pie crust. Do not put beans/pie stones in it to hold its shape or they will stick to it and prevent it from cooking. Second, the crust was not set in 20 min at 170 c. Third, the filling was not set after cooking more than an hour and never totally set. Fourth, 100% make sure to rotate your pan at half time or it will be cooked lopsided. Side note-I probably could have put foil on it and kept cooking it (the crust was browning too much to continue w/o covering after around an hour) but I ran out of time….
I am an experienced baker and have made hundreds of pecan pies-I’m actually known for them and they are my go-to reliable recipe. But I could not find ready made crusts or disposable tins this year (I live overseas) so I opted for trying a new recipe for my husband’s office party. We had to serve it in cups. So embarrassing. Maybe if you added more eggs and/or flour?
I will not be make this recipe again, but the crust is a keeper for other similar desserts. Maybe I’ll try it in the future with my usual pecan pie filling and see how it goes. 🙂
Also, people did like the taste even though it was pecan and shortbread soup lol 😉 Hopefully my mistakes will help you get it right. Happy baking!

Requested for each fishing and hunting trip with the guys.

I did cut the recipe in half and did a 9” square pan because I already had desserts made for tonight’s Thanksgiving dinner but they looked so good I had to try them.

I make this at least once a week!!! My family loves it. Reading the comments below … I will definitely try the chocolate chips.
