• In large bowl, beat egg whites on low speed with electric mixer until foamy. Add cream of tarter, increase mixer speed to medium and beat until soft peaks form.
• Continue beating while gradually adding sugar to mixture. Then increase speed to high and beat, scraping sides of bowl often until stiff peaks form. Mixture will be stiff and glossy.

• Let pie completely on wire rack. Don't worry if pie cracks and falls a bit as it cools.

HEART OF DIXIE PECAN PIE

Steps:

• Prepare and chill the dough.
• For the filling, combine corn syrup and sugar in saucepan and stir to mix. Place over low heat and bring to a boil, without stirring. Remove from heat, add butter and allow butter to melt. In a mixing bowl, whisk eggs to break up and whisk in salt and Bourbon. Whisk in syrup and butter mixture, being careful not to over mix. Allow to cool while preparing bottom crust.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees and set a rack in the lowest level. For the bottom crust, lightly flour the work surface and the dough and roll it to a 12-inch disk. Fold the dough in half and place it in the pan; unfold the dough and press it firmly into the pan. Trim away all but 1/2-inch excess dough at edge of pan. Fold dough under and flute edge.
• Arrange pecans in crust. Skim foam from top of filling (or the top will have an unattractively mottled surface) and pour over pecans. With the back of a fork, press the pecans down into the filling so that they are immersed.
• Bake the pie for about 45 minutes, until the crust is baked through and the filling is set and well puffed in the center. Cool the pie on a rack and serve warm or at room temperature.

LIGHT PECAN PIE

Steps:

• FILLING.
• Preheat oven to 375°F (If you want your filling to have toasted pecans, make sure to toast them first at 350°F for around 9 minutes).
• Mix the all the ingredients together (make sure to press out any clumps) and stir in cooled pecans. Pour into selected pie shell. The pecans will rise to the surface of the pie.
• ***I brush the sides of the crust w/ some of the filling mixture and leave little puddles along the bottom to get it crisp and tasty edges**.
• **Note** I bake my own tart shell in a springform pan, remove it and then place it on a baking sheet w/ edges, lined w/ parchment paper. I then fill it with the pie filling.
• Bake at 375°F for 30 minutes or until the filling has set depending on your oven. About 18 minutes into the cooking you may want to use a pie crust protector, or tent the edges of the pie crust with aluminum foil to prevent the pie crust edges from burning.
• Remove from oven and let cool completely.
