Ingredients

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons white sugar
1/2 cup butter, chilled
4 tablespoons ice water
3 eggs, beaten
3/4 cup light corn syrup

    I should dig up a chocolate-pecan pie recipe for you then.

    As to the nuts remark, or shall we call them 'sweetmeats,' ... *snicker*...I'm sure the ones you are referring to are indeed quite spectacular.

That would be cool! I buy a cinanmon pecan pie with custard from the bakery every chance I get. Chocolate is slightly superior to cinanmom so choclate pecan pie should be even better.

And I am going to bake this pie and my google skills are sadly lacking I know a US cup and a metric cup are different sizes. A metric cup is 250ml a US cup is ????

    Its not a trick, well maybe it is can you post food stuffs?

    We do get Pecans, maybe they are imported? I dont know. Pecan pie is my second favourite dessert running a close second to Chocolate Pudding.

    Sadly my nut experience is very limited. Ive always kept myself to the ones I know best and shied away from any outside nuts.

Is all this just a trick to convience me it would be easier to make and express mail you a pie?

Can you even get pecans there? Aren't they native to the US?

 Now I think about it I think your cups are a different size to mine. Could you tell me how many millilitres or fluid ounces(?) are in a cup.

It would probably be easier if you just made me the pie

 I can taste the nutty goodness already.

Where did I put that vanilla ice cream?
