    Perfect Pecan Pie Makes one 9-inch pie All-purpose flour, for dusting 1/2 cup sugar 1/2 recipe Pâte Brisée (recipe follows), 1 cup dark corn syrup or frozen store-bought pastry shell 1/2 cup light corn syrup 2 1/2 cups pecan halves 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 4 large eggs Whipped cream, for serving 1. Preheat oven to 350° . If using homemade pâte brisée, lightly dust a clean work surface with flour, and roll dough into a 12-inch circle. Fit circle into a 9-inch pie plate being careful not to stretch dough too thin; create edges of choice. Transfer to freezer until firm, about 15 minutes. 2. Coarsely chop 1 1/4 cups pecans; set aside. In a medium bowl, combine eggs and sugar. Whisk to combine. Add corn syrups and vanilla. Whisk until well combined. Add chopped pecans, and stir. Pour into prepared crust. 3. Arrange remaining 1 1/4 cups pecan halves decoratively on top of pie. Bake until crust is golden, filling is firm, and a cake tester inserted in center of pie comes out clean; 50 to 55 minutes. Cool completely before slicing. Serve with whipped cream. MARTHA STEWART LIVING OMNIMEDIA Pâte Brisée (Pie Dough) Makes 1 double-crust or 2 single-crust 9- to 10-inch pies Pâte brisée is the French version of classic pie or tart pastry. Pressing the dough into a disk rather than shaping it into a ball allows it to chill faster. This will also make the dough easier to roll out, and if you freeze it, it will thaw more quickly.
