RECIPE
Serves 12
Ingredients:
1 pie crust (for double crust 9-inch pie)
2 cups halved pecans
1 1/3 cup dark chocolate chips
3 eggs
3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
3/4 cup light corn syrup
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Roll out the bottom crust and arrange in a 9-inch pie pan. Layer pecans and chips in the crust-lined pan. In a large bowl, quickly hand-whisk the eggs together until just combined. Add in the brown sugar, corn syrup, and flour, and stir with a wooden spoon until thoroughly incorporated. Pour over chocolate mixture. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling is set in center. Cover with spray-coated foil after 25 minutes of baking. Cool completely, approximately 2 hours. Store in refrigerator.
