Crust:
1 cup sugar
1 cup self-rising flour
1 cup milk
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
Filling:
1 1/2 cups light corn syrup
1 1/2 cups sugar
7 -- eggs, beaten
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, melted
2 teaspoons vanilla extract, or 1 tablespoon whiskey
1 1/2 cups chopped pecans or 2 cups whole pecans

For the Crust: Combine the sugar, flour, milk and butter in a bowl and mix well. Pour into a 9×13-inch baking dish sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
For the Filling: Combine the corn syrup, sugar, eggs, butter, vanilla and pecans( I like my pecans whole} in a bowl and mix well. Spoon over the crust batter. Bake at 350F for 45 to 55 minutes or until the crust is brown and the filling is very softly set. Serve warm
