1 cup Dark Corn Syrup
3/4 cup Sugar
3 Tablespoon Butter (melted)
1 teaspoon Vanilla

In medium bowl, combine Corn Syrup, Sugar, Butter, Vanilla, and Eggs; stir until well mixed. Pour this mixture into the prepared Piecrust. Rearrange Pecans in the Piecrust, if necessary.
Place 1 inch strips of foil around edges of the Piecrust to keep crust from browning too much.
