To make this delicious dessert, you will need the following ingredients:

For the crust:

For the filling:

- 1 cup light corn syrup

To start, preheat your oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, mix together the flour and salt. Add the butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Trim the edges and prick the bottom with a fork.
In a separate bowl, mix together the corn syrup, sugar, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Stir in the pecan halves. Pour the mixture into the prepared crust.
Bake the pie for 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. Let the pie cool completely before serving.
