Time 1h45m

Yield 12 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1¼ cups all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling
¼ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon sugar
1 stick chilled unsalted butter, cut in pieces
3 tablespoons ice water
2 large eggs
1 cup sugar
1 stick unsalted butter, melted and cooled
¼ cup Maker's Mark® Bourbon
½ cup all-purpose flour
1½ cups walnuts, toasted and coarsely chopped
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • 1. To make the crust: In a food processor, pulse the flour, salt, and sugar to mix. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal with pea-sized pieces. Sprinkle the ice water on top and pulse until large clumps form. Press the dough into a disk, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour. 2. On a lightly floured work surface, roll the dough into a 12-inch round. Fit into a 9-inch pie dish. Tuck in the overhang and decoratively crimp the edges. Freeze while heating the oven. 3. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prick the bottom of the dough all over with a fork. Line with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until the is golden and dry, about 20 minutes. Remove the parchment and pie weights. Return the crust to the oven and continue baking until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Let cool slightly on a wire rack. 4. Meanwhile, make the filling: In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar. Continue whisking while adding the butter, then the bourbon. Stir in the flour until well combined. Stir in the walnuts and chocolate chips. Pour into the warm pie shell. 5. Bake until the filling is set and the top golden, about 30 minutes. Cool in the pan on a wire rack. Serve warm or room temperature.

Tips:

  • To ensure a perfectly baked pie crust, preheat your oven to the desired temperature before assembling your pie. This will help the crust to bake evenly and prevent it from becoming soggy.
  • When rolling out your pie dough, be sure to use a lightly floured surface to prevent the dough from sticking. If the dough becomes too sticky, you can chill it for a few minutes before continuing to roll it out.
  • If you are using a store-bought pie crust, be sure to trim the edges so that they are even. You can also use a fork to crimp the edges of the crust to create a decorative design.
  • Before filling your pie, be sure to brush the bottom crust with a beaten egg. This will help to prevent the filling from making the crust soggy.
  • When baking a fruit pie, be sure to use a pie plate that is deep enough to prevent the filling from overflowing. You can also place a baking sheet underneath the pie plate to catch any drips.
  • To prevent the top crust from becoming too brown, you can brush it with a mixture of milk and sugar before baking. You can also cover the crust with a piece of aluminum foil if it starts to get too brown.
  • Once your pie is baked, let it cool for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the pie to slice more easily.

Conclusion:

No matter what kind of pie you are making, there are some general tips that you can follow to ensure a delicious and successful result. By following these tips, you can be sure that your pies will turn out perfect every time.
