Time 56m

Yield 1 pie, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 cup dark corn syrup
2 tablespoons butter, melted with
2 ounces semisweet chocolate
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups pecan halves, toasted*
2 tablespoons Bourbon (or any liqour you like)
1 pie crust

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In bowl, or blender is how my mom always made pecan pies, beat eggs with fork. Add sugar, corn syrup, butter w/chocolate, vanilla, and Bourbon. Stir till well blended. This is why the blender is a great and easy idea.
  • Pour into pie crust. Stir pecans into mixture, till all are incorporated, or all covered with goo :).
  • Bake for 50-55 min, or when knife inserted in center comes out clean.
  • *To toast pecans put into dry skillet on medium-high heat. shake skillet around till they become brown and fragant and you can really notice their color change. This will take about 7-10 minute.
