Chocolate Pecan Pie

Chocolate Pecan Pie is a delectable dessert that combines the rich flavors of chocolate and pecans in a flaky pie crust. This dish is perfect for any occasion and is sure to impress your guests. To make this mouth-watering dessert, you will need the following ingredients:

For the crust:

- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces
- 3-4 tablespoons ice water

For the filling:

- 1 cup dark corn syrup
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 3 large eggs, beaten
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup pecan halves
- 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, and sugar for the crust. Add the chilled butter and use a pastry cutter or your hands to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Roll out the dough on a floured surface and transfer it to a 9-inch pie dish. Trim the edges and set aside.
For the filling, whisk together the corn syrup, sugar, melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Stir in the pecans and chocolate chips. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust.
Bake the pie for 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. Let the pie cool completely before serving.
This Chocolate Pecan Pie is a perfect combination of sweet and nutty flavors. The chocolate chips add a rich and decadent touch to the classic pecan pie. The crust is flaky and buttery, making it the perfect vessel for the delicious filling. This dish is best served warm with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
