This pie is a great way to use up leftover bourbon. It's also a delicious and festive dessert for the holidays.

I'm not a big fan of pecan pie, but this one was really good. The bourbon and orange flavors really add something special.

I had some trouble getting the crust to brown properly. I think I might have needed to bake it for a little longer.

This pie is a little too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

This pie is so easy to make and it always turns out perfectly. I love that I can use frozen puff pastry to make the crust.

This pie was a hit at my Thanksgiving dinner! The flavors of the bourbon, orange, and pecans were perfectly balanced. The crust was flaky and buttery. I will definitely be making this pie again.
