[Sca-cooks] Pecan pies was Yams, Pumpkins, Pecan Pie, was s'mores?

You could go with very small pecan pies done as tartlets.
Or abandon all hope and do something like a Kentucky
Chocolate Pecan Pie.

They say that the golden syrup pecan pies are not as sweet
but I've never made one.

I just go with the standard Karo syrup one
whenever I make one which is maybe every two years or so.
The teenager in this household really likes the sweet goo.
