Chocolate Pecan Pie

 A slice of this Chocolate Pecan Pie is the perfect festive addition to any Southern celebration! A thick, gooey chocolate chip cookie meets a warm buttery pie for a heavenly and decadent easy dessert recipe.

Ingredients

  • 1 frozen (9-inch) deep-dish pie crust thawed
  • 1 ½ sticks (12 tablespoons) salted butter, at room temperature
  • cup flour
  • 1 ½ cups sugar
  • 3 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 ¾ cups chopped pecans or walnuts
  • 1 ½ tablespoons bourbon or vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups chocolate chips
  • Optional: whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, for serving

 

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 275 degrees F. Place pie crust in a deep pie plate.
  • Place room-temperature butter, flour, and sugar in a large mixing bowl. Use an electric mixer to beat until well blended. Add eggs and combine.
  • Stir in nuts, bourbon (or vanilla), and chocolate chips. Pour into pie shell (make sure to leave a little bit of room at the top of the crust so that the pie filling doesn't overflow in the oven). If you have too much filling to fit in your crust, leave some of it out. I haven't had this issue, but I know that a couple of readers have mentioned that.
  • Bake for 90 minutes (or longer, as necessary). See the notes below about how to know when your pie is done. Allow to cool completely before cutting.
