Creole Pecan Pie

From a new orleans' friend. This pie is very good, and very sweet and very rich. Serve small slices with vanilla ice cream and coffee.

Prebake the chilled pie shell , weighted down , at 350 degrees for 7 minutes.

Take out the weights and bake another 2.

Let cool.

Beat the eggs until frothy.

Add the remaining ingredients , mix well , pour into the shell , and bake at 350 degrees for about 40-45 minutes , or until set.

Let cool completely before serving.

Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
