Directions

1. Pre-heat oven to 350° F. Remove store bought crust from refrigerator and let warm slightly so that you can easily unroll the dough into the pie pan.
2. Measure out 2 cups of pecans onto a cutting board and coarsely chop them.
   
3. Slightly whisk 3 eggs in a bowl.
   
4. Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a microwave safe bowl.
5. In a small bowl, combine by hand slightly beaten eggs, light brown sugar, molasses, corn syrup, melted butter, rum vanilla and salt. Mix until smooth.
   
6. Put pie crust into 9-inch pie pan.
   
7. Spread the chopped nuts into the bottom of the pie pan.
   
8. Pour the filling mixture over the pecans.
   
9. Bake for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes loosely cover the pie in aluminum foil so that the pie does not over bake.
10. Bake for another 35-45 minutes. The center of the pie should be slightly jiggly when it is done.
11. Let cool and serve.
