Description
A delicious bourbon chocolate pecan pie that is perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup bourbon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 6 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- 1 9-inch deep-dish unbaked pie crust
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the white sugar, light corn syrup, and unsalted butter. Stir constantly until the butter melts and the mixture is smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Slowly pour in the warm sugar mixture while whisking continuously to prevent the eggs from cooking.
- Stir in the bourbon, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
- Add the chocolate chips and chopped pecans to the mixture and stir until evenly distributed.
- Pour the filling into the unbaked pie crust, spreading it evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center has a slight jiggle. The pie will continue to set as it cools.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack before slicing. Serve at room temperature or chilled.
Notes
- This pie can be made a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
- For a nuttier flavor, toast the pecans before adding them to the filling.
