A dear friend of the family gave this recipe to me many years ago. It is a wonderful alternative to pecan pie, especially during the holidays. That touch of sherry adds something special.

How To Make sherry walnut pie

Step 1

Melt buter, stir in flour. Add corn syrup, wine, sugar. Cook, stirring constantly until mixture boils. Beat eggs in separate bowl. Stir hot mixture gradually into the beaten eggs a small amount at a time so it will not curdle eggs until all can be added. Add nuts and pour into unbaked pie shell.

Step 2

Bake in preheated oven 375 degrees for 45 min or till firm. (Any extra filling may be baked in about half the time in a small custard cup.)
