2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions

Bake squash at 350 degrees F until soft.

Peel, seed, puree, and measure out 1 1/2 cup.

Whisk all of the Part One ingredients together until the sugar
dissolves.

Pour into an unbaked, 10-inch pie shell that has been brushed
with egg white.

While that's baking, make the second part of the filling.

Whisk all the Part Two ingredients (except the pecans)
together.

When the butternut filling is set, sprinkle evenly with pecan
pieces.

Gently pour the second filling over the nuts.

Return pie to the oven, and bake at 325 F for 40 to 45 minutes,
or until just set.

Cool to room temperature and serve with lightly sweetened
whipped cream.
