Simple Chocolate Pecan Pie Recipe

Ingredients :

• 1 9-inch unbaked pie shell
• 1 cup (109 grams) pecan halves
• 1 cup (170 grams) semisweet chocolate chips
• 4 large eggs, at room temperature, lightly beaten
• 1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup (100 grams) light brown sugar
• 1/2 cup corn syrup
• 2 tablespoons bourbon (optional)
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/8 teaspoon salt

Instructions :

• Heat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and set it to preheat.
• To ensure that the chocolate chips and pecans are distributed evenly on the bottom of the pie crust, you should divide them up.
• A large bowl should be used to combine the eggs, granulated sugar, brown sugar, corn syrup, bourbon, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt. All of the ingredients should be whisked together to combine them successfully.
• Put the mixture on top of the chocolate chips and pecans that are already there. Place a pie shield on top of the crust in a safe manner after the pie has been baked for thirty minutes.
• Continue baking the filling for roughly twenty to twenty-five minutes longer, or until it reaches the consistency that you deem appropriate.
• After removing the dish from the oven, wait half an hour for it to cool down before slicing it and giving it to the guests.
• The dish should be covered and stored in the refrigerator with the lid on for a maximum of two days.

• In contrast to being runny, we would prefer the filling to have a gooey consistency. When all is said and done, baking is the most important thing.
• To ensure that the pecan pie achieves an interior temperature of 200 degrees Fahrenheit, make sure to check the temperature.
• Despite the fact that the edges should be firm, the middle should have a tiny wobble to it, which is analogous to the way gelatine acts.
