This Texas-style chocolate pecan pie is rich, gooey, and loaded with toasted pecans and melted chocolate — the ultimate upgrade on a Southern classic.
1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust
1 1/2 cups pecan halves (toasted, 1 cup chopped + 1/2 cup whole)
3/4 cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips
3 large eggs
3/4 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp salt
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line pie plate with crust and chill.
Toast pecans for 8–10 min, then chop half.
Sprinkle chocolate chips over bottom of crust.
In bowl, whisk eggs, corn syrup, sugar, butter, vanilla, and salt. Stir in chopped pecans.
Pour filling over chocolate. Decorate with whole pecans.
Bake 50–60 minutes until set but slightly jiggly.
Cool completely before slicing.
Toasting pecans enhances flavor.
Add bourbon for a Southern twist.
