Fudge Nut Pie cooks like a classic pecan pie with a chewy top crust. You will recognize the ingredients – dark Karo syrup, sugar, flour, and vanilla. Actually if you want to substitute pecans with walnuts, we won’t tell. This is an excellent nutty pie. Tastes great when served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Yes, this pie is as good as it sounds.
