Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons all-purpose flour, plus more for work surface
1/2 recipe Flaky Piecrust
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup dark corn syrup
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons aged bourbon
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
1 1/2 cups pecan halves, 1 cup chopped
1 cup coarsely chopped semisweet chocolate (about 6 ounces)
1 tablespoon heavy cream (optional)
1 large egg yolk (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to an 11-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick. Fit into a 9-inch pie plate. Trim edge to 1 inch. Fold under, and crimp as desired. Prick bottom of crust a few times with the tines of a fork. Freeze 15 minutes.
  • Line crust with parchment paper, and fill with pie weights. Bake 20 minutes. Remove parchment and weights. Bake until crust is dry but not brown, about 5 minutes more. Let cool on a wire rack at least 15 minutes and up to 3 hours. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees.
  • Stir together butter, sugar, flour, corn syrup, eggs, bourbon, and salt in a medium bowl. Stir in chopped pecans and chocolate. Pour into crust. Arrange pecan halves on top of filling. Whisk cream and egg yolk in a small bowl, and brush over edges of pie, if desired. Bake until just set in center and crust is golden, about 40 minutes. Cover with foil if browning too quickly. Let cool completely.

This pie was a disaster! The crust was soggy and the filling was too runny. The chocolate and bourbon flavors were overpowered by the sweetness of the pie. I would not recommend this recipe.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but overall it was still good. The chocolate and bourbon flavors were nice, and the pecans added a nice crunch. The crust was a little dry, but overall it was a good pie.

This pie is amazing! The chocolate and bourbon flavors are so rich and decadent, and the pecans add a nice touch of texture. The crust is flaky and buttery, and the filling is gooey and delicious. I will definitely be making this pie again and again!

I've made this pie several times now, and it always turns out perfect. The chocolate and bourbon flavors are so well-balanced, and the pecans add a nice crunch. I love that it's not too sweet, and the crust is always flaky and golden brown.

This pie was a hit at my holiday party! Everyone loved the rich chocolate flavor and the gooey bourbon pecan filling. The crust was flaky and buttery, and the whole pie was just the right amount of sweetness. I will definitely be making this again!
