I’m really trying hard to get a head start for easy Fall dinner party recipes and this is another interesting one that I really like, but needs to be tweaked a little. The corn syrup in there seems to be a little too much and I think I need to use a better vodka to make it a little smoother, but other wise it’s really good. I aslo skipped toasting my pecans which really needs to be done as well.
