Yield Makes 1 nine-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 11

2/3 cup sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
4 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped into 1/2-inch chunks
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
All-purpose flour, for dusting
Easy Chocolate Crust
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups pecan halves
2 tablespoons fresh or dried lavender, for garnish (optional)
1 cup whipped cream, or creme fraiche

Steps:

  • Combine sugar and corn syrup in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to low, and simmer 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cool completely, about 45 minutes. Let thicken.
  • In the top of a double boiler, combine 2 ounces chocolate and butter over medium-low heat; cook until melted. Set aside to cool.
  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. On lightly floured surface, roll out chocolate-crust dough to a 13-inch circle, 1/8 inch thick. Place dough in pan, and crimp edges. Chill 15 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, beat eggs until foamy. Add chocolate and corn-syrup mixtures to eggs, and combine. Stir in vanilla and pecan halves.
  • Pour filling into crust. Bake 20 minutes. Lower oven to 350 degrees and bake until filling has set, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining 2 ounces chocolate; bake 5 minutes more. Cool on a wire rack, 1 1/4 hours. Garnish with lavender, if using, and serve with whipped cream or creme fraiche.

I've never made chocolate pecan pie before, but this recipe made it easy. The pie turned out great and my family loved it.

This pie was a disaster! The crust was soggy and the filling was runny. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

This pie is so easy to make and it always turns out perfectly. I love that I can use pre-made pie crust and filling to save time.

The chocolate crust was a bit too hard for my liking, but the pecan filling was delicious. I would try this recipe again, but I would make sure to pre-bake the crust before adding the filling.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved it. The crust was nice and flaky, but the filling was a bit too gooey for my liking.
