Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 eggs, lightly beaten
2 c sugar
12 oz package semisweet chocolate chips, melted
1 c self-rising flour, sifted
1/2 lb butter, melted (2 sticks)
2 tsp vanilla
2 c pecans, chopped (i buy these from trader joe's)
2 9 inch unbaked deep-dish (a must) pie shells (or 3 regular 9 inch unbaked pie shells)

Steps:

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Mix together the eggs, sugar and melted chocolate.
3. Add the flour and mix it all together; stir in the remaining ingredients (expect for the pie shells!).
4. Spread the mixture into the pie shells. Bake for about 30 minutes. Take the pie out and let it set for a while. If the chocolate doesn't seem to come together firm enough for cutting, bake it for up to an additional 10 minutes (might want to put foil around pie crust edges). Serve warm with some ice cream. This pie does freeze well.
