I’m making chocolate pecan pie for Thanksgiving. Super easy and everyone loves it.

Ingredients

  • 10 tablespoons (1 stick plus 2 tablespoons) butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 3 extra-large eggs
  • 1 cup dark corn syrup
  • 1 cup pecan halves
  • 1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) bittersweet chocolate, chopped into chip-sized pieces
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 9(-inch) frozen pie crust

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  2. Put the butter in a large bowl and stir in the sugar with a wooden spoon until smooth, about three minutes. Beat the eggs in one at a time, until each is incorporated. Add the remaining ingredients. Pour the filling into the crust.
  3. Bake on the center rack of the oven for 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350°F and bake for 30 to 35 minutes more, until the pie is set and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool before serving.
