Lurkingirl report Posted Nov. 30, 2011 7:23 PM
I Loved this pie! I'm from the South and was raised on Pecan Pie. This version is a new take on an old recipe. The nutmeg and cinnamon add a subtle undertone for a surprise finish. I didn't drizzle the chocolate or drown it with "whipped" cream and the fresh taste of the Pie was strong enough to stand alone.
