This pie …

Oh my …

If you like pecan pie, and you like chocolate, for the love of all that is good, try this pie. Soon!

Pie making is easy. All you do is take some pretty basic ingredients: eggs, light corn syrup, melted butter, light brown sugar, bourbon (just a little bit), all-purpose flour, vanilla extract, pecans and chocolate chips.

Find an empty pie shell you may have lying around, or make your own pie crust. My good friend Robyn from AddaPinch, has an excellent homemade pie crust recipe. During the holidays I also like to stock up on pre-made pie dough, that you unroll, fill and bake. It’s so easy to use and works great when running late on your baking schedule.

Mix up all the ingredients and fill that pie shell with all the good stuff.

Bake it up. And shazam! You’ve got a pretty darn tasty Chocolate Bourbon Pecan Pie, if I do say so myself.

Going now to eat more pie.

And then hit the treadmill.

A few pie making notes:

• A big shout out to Jennifer Perillo from In Jennie’s Kitchen for tips on baking instructions. Her tip for baking at a high temp first then lowering the tempeartue always works perfectly when baking pies. 
• Have fun crimping and decorating your pie. There is no right or wrong way. Here’s an excellent video I found for crimping pie crust 3 different ways. Have fun with it!
