Equipment

oven
Mixing Bowl
whisk
cookie cutter

Ingredients

1 cup shortening
⅔ cup granulated sugar
3 pieces eggs
1 cup dark corn syrup
2-3 tablespoons spiced rum or bourbon recommended: Woodford Reserve or Myer's Dark Rum
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
a pinch salt
1 cup pecans
2 (9 inch) pie shells

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350ºF.
Beat shortening, sugar and eggs on high until mixed well. Add the corn syrup, spiced rum, vanilla extract and salt and mix to incorporate. Fold in pecans.
Pour mixture into 1 of the pie shells. Trim any overhanging edges of the pie crust. Bake for 20 minutes to set the pie. Remove from the oven.
Using a leaf-shaped cookie cutter, cut 15-25 leaves from the second pie shell. Arrange the leaves around the edges of the pie, half on the crust and half on the filling, slightly overlapping each other. Arrange the remaining leaves in the center of the pie.
Return to the oven and bake for 25-35 minutes. Let spiked pie cool for at least 30 minutes.
