½ cup | Butter |
2 cups | Sugar, light brown |
4 \N | Egg yolks |
2 tablespoons | Flour, all purpose |
1 teaspoon | Cinnamon |
½ teaspoon | Allspice |

1 cup | Cream or evaporated milk |
½ cup | Dates; chopped |
½ cup | Raisins |
½ cup | Pecan meats, broken |
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Cream together butter and brown sugar.
Beat in 4 egg yolks. Mix together flour and spices and then add. Stir in cream, dates, raisins and nuts. Fill the shell;bake the pie until set, about 30 minutes. When cool take 2 or 3 egg whites and make a meringue as a topping. The dates are not necessary but a nice extra;without them and the nuts it is called a Kentucky or Arkansas pie. This is a great favorite in southern cafeteria and small town restaurants. Source: mom
