Molasses-Pecan Pie

Met with enthusiastic approval from around my Thanksgiving table immediately after the first bite, this is in the running for the best pie I’ve ever made. It’s certainly the best pecan pie I’ve ever made, and I might never try another recipe after this one. I attribute the special deliciousness mainly to the molasses, which reins in the tooth-aching sweetness pecan pie is known for, while adding depth to the flavor.
