Warm and gooey chocolate pecan pie is a tasty twist on a classic Pecan Pie, made even better topped with Vanilla Ice Cream!
For Chocolate Lovers
Pecan Pies are actually some of my favorite pies to make for Thanksgiving! We love all variations of it (Pecan Pie Bars, Mini Pecan Pies) and today’s Chocolate Pecan Pie. We love it because:
Perfect for holidays. It’s perfect for serving on holidays, with our favorite Pumpkin Pie, Cherry Pie, or Buttermilk Pie. Two great flavors in one. With pecan pie and chocolate together, the flavor is phenomenal. The melted chocolate gives it a fudgy texture everyone loves! Quick + Easy. Prep is just 10 minutes!
Ingredients
To get the best filling texture, use room temperature ingredients (specifically the eggs), and make sure all of the ingredients are well mixed. You don’t want any raw sugar pockets in your filling!
unbaked pie crust – I like to make Homemade Pie Crust because it can’t be beaten, but I’m also all about simplifying when needed. unsalted butter chopped semi sweet or unsweetened chocolate – Make this with cocoa powder instead of chocolate chips. The only thing that would change, would be the possible addition of corn syrup. Corn syrup gives close to the same consistency as melted chocolate. I would suggest using ⅔ cup dark corn syrup and ¼ cup cocoa powder. sugar light brown sugar salt large eggs vanilla extract chopped pecans whole pecans for garnish (optional)
