Chocolate Bourbon Pecan Pie

Yield: 1-8

Ingredients

Pie Crust

• 1 premade pie crust or 1 homemade pie crust

Pie Filling

• 2 cups Pecans
• 3 Large Eggs
• 3/4 cup Brown Sugar
• 2/3 cup Light Corn Syrup
• 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
• 2 Tbsp Unsalted Butter (melted)
• 3 Tbsp Bourbon (1 shooter bottle)
• 1/2 tsp Salt
• 3/4 cup Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips

Instructions

Prepare Crust

1. Go to the store, buy premade pie crust.
2. Alternatively, make your own. No recipe up yet for pie crust.
3. Put pie crust in pie pan, centered is typically best, unless you don't have OCD and/or are a sociopath.
4. Press into pie pan for shape. For crust, be creative to make fancy. I just pinch triangles.

Filling

1. Set oven to 375 F
2. Toast pecans on a baking sheet for 8 minutes. Coarsely chop once done. Can pulse in a food processor if you have one.
3. In a bowl, whisk eggs, brown sugar, corn syrup, vanilla, melted butter, bourbon, and salt.
4. Add in chocolate chips and chopped roasted pecans.
5. Add pie mixture to prepared crust.
6. Bake at 375 F for 30 minutes on a lower oven shelf. Remove from oven and wrap foil around the crust. Return to the oven for 20-25 minutes.
7. Slice, dish, and top with cinnamon whipped cream - see notes for quick recipe.
