    I made this for Thanksgiving and it was truly magnificent. The pastry was really easy, rolled out perfectly and was deliciously buttery and flaky. The star anise/maple syrup combination really tranformed a basic pecan pie into something wonderful. Don't be alarmed at how strong the star anise flavor is if you taste the syrup. It really mellows after baking with the toasted nuts, eggs and rum. But it adds extra interest to the finished pie so I wouldn't skip it.
