I made this for my sister's birthday at her request, she said that she couldn't remember having such a delicious Pecan pie! You can make this pie several different ways by using different nuts. If you like Walnuts, make this using Walnuts instead of Pecans! The Vanilla Bean is optional but it adds a unique and incredible flavor. Enjoy!
