Caroline makes this for New Year's Eve. Goes well with anything, especially champagne.

1/3 cup butter
3/4 cup brown sugar
3 eggs
1 cup corn syrup (Karo)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup Jack Daniels Tennessee whiskey or
    a good Kentucky Bourbon
1 cup walnut pieces

Make a pie shell. For filling, beat eggs, cream in sugar and butter. Mix in corn syrup, vanilla and salt. Add whiskey, beat. Stir in walnuts. Pour filling into shell and float a few whole walnut meats on the surface. Bake at 425 degrees F for 30 minutes, then at 375 for another 30 minutes or until done (firm in center). Cool.
