Good Housekeeping Walnut Or Pecan Pie - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1/2 cup light brown sugar
    1/2 cup butter
    3/4 cup granulated sugar
    3 eggs
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/4 cup corn syrup (I use maple syrup)
    1/2 cup light cream or 1/2 cup milk
    1 cup walnut pieces or 1 cup pecan pieces
    1/2 teaspoon vanilla
    1 unbaked 9-inch pie shell
Preparation
    Prepare an unbaked 9\" pie shell. Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F.
    In double-boiler top, with electric mixer at medium speed, or with spoon, mix 1/2 cup light brown sugar and 1/2 cup butter until well blended.
    Add 3/4 cup granulated sugar; mix well. Add 3 eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition, to blend. Add 1/4 tsp salt, 1/4 cup corn syrup, 1/2 cup light cream or milk; mix well.
    Cook over boiling water, stirring, 5 minutes. Remove from water; stir in 1 cup pecan halves or walnut pieces and 1/2 tsp vanilla. Pour into lined pie plate.
    Bake 1 hours.
    The filling is very light and not real sweet and syrupy. It puffs up when baking and shrinks just slightly during cooling.
