• Blend remaining ingredients (except pecans) with mixer.
• Stir in pecans and pour into chilled pie shells. Cover pie shell edge with foil or guard.
• Bake 10 minutes at 450 degrees, then reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake for 35 minutes more or until set.

Steps:

• Roll out the dough on a floured surface to a thickness of about 3/8 inch. Line a 9-inch pie dish with the dough, bringing it fully up the sides. Trim off any excess dough and crimp the edge. Place the pie dish in the refrigerator to allow the dough to firm up.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Combine the sugar, corn syrup, butter, bourbon, and salt in a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and let the mixture cool to lukewarm.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs and vanilla together and then add the cooled bourbon syrup mixture. Continue whisking until fully incorporated.
• Place the pecans in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 5 minutes. Be careful not to let them burn. This will give the pecans a toasted flavor. Allow to cool.
• Raise the oven temperature to 375 degrees F. Remove the pie dish from the refrigerator and fill it with the cooled pecans. Pour over the bourbon syrup mixture, completely covering the pecans.
• Bake for 10 minutes, reduce the temperature to 325 degrees F, and continue to bake for about 40 minutes, until set. Remove from the oven and place on a wire rack to cool completely. Serve each slice with whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream.
• Sift the flour and salt into a large bowl. Using a pastry blender or two knives, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture is the consistency of pea-sized crumbs. Slowly add the cold water 1 teaspoon at a time, mixing just until a lightly moist dough is formed. The amount of water needed can vary; it can be more or less than the full amount.
• Divide the dough in half and form into two balls. Tightly wrap each ball in plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator until needed. The dough should rest for at least 1 hour.
• When ready to use, remove the dough from the refrigerator, allow to rest for 10 minutes, and unwrap. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough as directed in individual recipes. For the best results, always work with cold dough.
