  • About This Recipe

    “I adopted this from the Recipezaar account. The original was called Oh So Good Pie. It called for golden raisins but I use regular ones. I haven’t made the Spiked Cream yet but maybe will the next time :)”

  • Reviews

  • “Forget the ‘Tipsy’ ’cause I didn’t make the pie that way, & it STILL came out great! I did use golden raisins, since I didn’t want the stronger taste of the dark ones to overwhelm the pecans! I also didn’t make the spiked topping, but rather topped it off with some frogen yogurt, & it all turned out to be a VERY NICE dessert! Thanks for sharing!”
