How to Make Mystery Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Drain 1 (15-ounce) can of kidney beans and blend until completely smooth using an immersion blender or food processor.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) of unsalted butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in 3 large eggs one at a time, then stir in ½ cup light corn syrup, 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  5. Gently fold in the blended beans.
  6. Pour the batter into a 9-inch unbaked pie crust.
  7. Sprinkle ½ cup pecan halves evenly over the top.
  8. Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges loosely with foil.
  9. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
  10. Serve chilled with whipped cream or Cool Whip.
