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 extract 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.
