Pecan Balls

This rich, gorgeous and succulent pie is made by combining a creamy simmered meringue with the heavy cream, molasses, light brown sugar, maple syrup, and egg yolks, then pour the mixture over pecans scattered on a pie shell. It is a drop-dead simple, yet classic pie recipe. And, one of my personal favorites.

Here we fill a store-bought pie crust with luscious light corn syrup - pecan mixture and top with a sprinkling of some extra pecans for an adorable dessert. Serve with a dab of whipped cream or sour cream to balance the sweetness.

If you enjoy having treats around the house for noshing during the holidays, try this Southern classic recipe! Crunchy pecans are coated with a layer of pure maple syrup and sea salt for a sweet & salty taste everyone will enjoy. I usually make several batches to give as food gifts around the holiday season.

After a satisfying Southern-style meal, treat your family to this recipe for homemade pecan pie. Instead of the usual recipe, try this elevated pie with a double punch of chocolate! It has a delicious crust made with cocoa, and the filling is loaded with crunchy pecans and chocolate chips. Each bite is a little piece of chocolatey pecan heaven that you made yourself!
