BROWN SUGAR PECAN PIE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a food processor, combine flours, powdered sugar, and salt. Pulse a few times to combine. Sprinkle pieces of butter over flour mixture, stir in lightly, then pulse about 6 times. Sprinkle shortening pieces over mixture, stir in lightly, then pulse about 6 to 7 more times.
• Sprinkle with half of the water. Pulse 5 times. Sprinkle with remaining water and pulse about 6 times, until dough begins to clump.
• Empty large crumbs into a bowl. Pack and knead just 2 or 3 times to form a cohesive dough.
• Shape into a disk, wrap in plastic, and chill for about 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Roll out on a floured surface to fit pie pan. Fold over and fit into pan, cutting off excess. Form a decorative edge around plate. Before adding filling, brush with a little of the beaten egg white, if desired.
• Gather ingredients.
• Preheat oven to 400 F. In a mixing bowl, combine beaten eggs, corn syrup, brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla, and salt. Stir to blend well. Stir in pecans.
• Pour into unbaked pie shell. Bake 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 350 F and bake 25 to 30 minutes longer. If at any point, the crust edge is browning too much, cover with a pie ring or foil ring .
• When it's done, the outer edge of the pecan pie filling should be slightly puffed and set, and the middle will have just a slight jiggle. Let pecan pie cool completely on a rack (this will take between 2 hours and several hours, depending on your kitchen temperature).
• Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.

BROWN BUTTER PECAN PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• For the crust: Whisk together the flour, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Remove the butter from the freezer and work it into the dough by hand, working quickly to keep the butter as cold as possible. (Cold butter flakes are the secret to a flaky crust.) Be sure to leave pea-size butter flecks visible. Slowly pour the ice water into flour mixture. Using your hands, mix until a dough starts to form. Be careful not to overmix. It should appear shaggy but cohesive.
• Lightly dust a clean work surface with flour. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough out into a 1/4-inch-thick circle, 12 inches in diameter. Transfer the dough round to a 9-inch pie dish. Press the dough down into the dish. Tuck any overhanging dough back under the rim, using your hands to create a thick outer edge. Use a fork to crimp the edges or your hands to pinch for a more professional look. Place in the freezer to chill for 15 minutes.
• Remove from the freezer. Using a toothpick or a fork, poke holes in the bottom of the crust. Line the crust with parchment paper and fill the raw pie shell with pie weights or dried beans. Blind bake for 15 to 20 minutes until it begins to lightly brown. Remove from the oven and remove the parchment and pie weights.
• Beat the egg and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl. Brush the edges of the crust with the egg wash. Return to the oven and bake until light golden, about 10 minutes. Remove and let cool completely before filling. Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
• For the filling: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Slowly cook the butter, letting it bubble and swirling the pan occasionally, until it browns, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
• Whisk together the brown sugar, corn syrup, molasses, bourbon and vanilla in a large bowl. Whisk in the eggs. Fold in the pecans and salt. Once combined, stir in the brown butter. Pour the filling into the crust.
• Bake until the pie is golden brown, the filling is set and the internal temperature measures 200 degrees F, 40 to 45 minutes. (Check the pie after 30 minutes and tent the crust with foil if it is browning too quickly.) There should be a slight wiggle to the center of the pie. Cool completely on a wire rack.
• For the whipped cream: Add the heavy cream to a large chilled bowl. Using an electric hand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip on medium speed until soft, cloud-like peaks form. Turn the mixer speed to low and add the confectioners' sugar and salt. Gently fold in the bourbon.
• Slice the pie into 8 equal pieces and top each slice with bourbon whipped cream.

SPIRITED BROWN SUGAR PECAN PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 9-inch glass pie dish with dough. Crimp edge decoratively. Whisk sugar, eggs, butter, Scotch, vanilla, and cinnamon in large bowl to blend. Mix in nuts. Pour filling into dough-lined dish.
• Bake pie until filling is slightly puffed and set in center, covering edges with foil if browning too quickly, about 40 minutes. Cool pie completely at room temperature. Cut into wedges and serve with whipped cream.

Gently press dough against bottom and up side of plate without stretching. Trim dough edge, keeping overhang intact. Transfer overhang to work surface. From overhang, with 3/4-inch decorative cookie cutter, cut 40 shapes, rerolling if necessary, for decorating rim of pie later. Refrigerate pie shell 15 minutes. Refrigerate cut shapes until ready to use.
• Line pie shell with foil or parchment, and fill with pie weights, dried beans, or uncooked rice. Bake 12-14 minutes or until beginning to set. Remove foil with weights and bake 13-15 minutes longer or until golden.
• Meanwhile, in large bowl, with wire whisk, mix sugar, syrup, whole eggs, butter, bourbon, and salt until well blended.
• Place hot pie shell in 18" x 12"-inch jelly-roll pan. Lightly brush rim of pie shell with egg white. Gently and carefully press cut shapes around rim. Spread pecans in even layer in pie shell, then pour sugar mixture over them.
• Bake 35 minutes or until filling is golden brown, puffed, and set around edge, but center still jiggles slightly. Cool completely on wire rack.
