Pecan Pie (New Orleans Style) image

Attention Molasses Lovers!! This recipe comes from Justin Wilson's Homegrown Louisiana Cookin, and it is WONDERFUL! As you can see, this recipe has mixed reviews . . . seems you either love it or hate it! I've double checked the recipe and there are NO mistakes. If you are not a true molasses lover, than I suggest that you substitute all or part of the molasses with corn syrup.
