Ingredients
- 1 9-inch unbaked deep-dish pie crust
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup pecan halves
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Place the unbaked pie crust into a deep-dish pie plate and crimp the edges.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the corn syrup, brown sugar, granulated sugar, melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.
- Stir in the pecan halves and chocolate chips until evenly combined.
- Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust.
- Bake for 50–60 minutes, until the center is set but still slightly jiggly. Cover the edges with foil if they brown too quickly.
- Remove from the oven and let the pie cool completely before slicing to allow the filling to set.
Notes
- Substitute dark chocolate chips for a richer chocolate flavor.
- Add 1 tablespoon of bourbon for a classic Texas twist.
- Use chopped pecans for a more uniform texture throughout the filling.
- Let the pie cool at least 2 hours before serving for best results.
- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or enjoy chilled.
