Texas Chocolate Pecan Pie 🍰
Indulge in the rich flavors of this delightful dessert!
📋 Ingredients
- 1 pre-made 9-inch pie crust
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups pecan halves
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- Optional Garnish: Whipped cream, extra pecans or chocolate shavings
📝 Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Place the pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish, trimming and fluting the edges as desired. Keep the crust chilled while preparing the filling.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together the light corn syrup, granulated sugar, brown sugar, melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.
4. Stir in the pecan halves and chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
5. Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly.
6. Place the pie dish on a baking sheet to catch any spills and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the filling is set but the center still jiggles slightly. If the crust browns too quickly, cover the edges with foil.
7. Allow the pie to cool completely to set the filling. Serve with whipped cream, extra pecans, or chocolate shavings if desired.
