Now that you’ve feasted your eyes on that beauty, let’s get into what you’ll need to make this glorious pie:
- 1 cup of pecans, roughly chopped
- 1/2 cup of dark chocolate chips
- 1 cup of granulated sugar
- 1 cup of corn syrup
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup of melted butter
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon of salt
- 1 pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
Now that you have the ingredients all lined up, it’s time to get to the good part—how to whip this pie together!
Instructions for the Perfect Pie
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine the sugar, corn syrup, eggs, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt. Whisk them together until smooth.
- Add in the chopped pecans and chocolate chips. Stir until they’re evenly distributed in the mixture.
- Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out evenly. Make sure that those pecans and chocolate are nicely situated.
- Bake the pie for about 60 minutes, or until it’s set in the center and the crust is golden brown. If the edges brown too quickly, cover them with a little foil.
- Once it’s done, let it cool completely before slicing. This will help the filling firm up even more!
There you have it—a Chocolate Pecan Pie that’s rich, nutty, and just the right amount of sweet. Serve it up with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream on the side, and watch as it disappears before your very eyes. Happy baking, folks!
