Prepare Pecan Pie Filling: Combine sugar, syrup, eggs, butter,
vanilla, salt and cinnamon in an electric mixing bowl and beat on low
speed until syrup is opaque, about 4-5 minutes. Stir in pecans, mix
well.

Prepare Bourbon Sauce: Combine cream and milk in a large mixing bowl.
Slowly whip in pudding mix. Add bourbon and continue whipping. Add
vanilla and whip until mixture is well blended to sauce consistency
(should not be as firm as pudding, but should not be runny). Sauce
should be made about one hour before use; it will thicken as it sits.
