Fudgy Pecan Pie image

This started out as just a plain chocolate pie that I "dressed up" for company. Now when I serve it, guests often tell me, "Your pie looks too good to eat - but I won't let that stop me!" -Ellen Arndt, Cologne, Minnesota

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pie turned out really dry. The filling didn't set properly.

I'm not usually a fan of pecan pie, but this recipe changed my mind. The fudgy filling was rich and decadent, and the pecans added a nice touch of texture. The crust was also perfectly flaky and buttery. I'll definitely be making this pie again.

This fudgy pecan pie recipe was an absolute delight! The pie had the perfect balance of sweetness and richness, with a creamy, gooey center and a buttery, flaky crust. The pecans added a nice crunch and nutty flavor. I would definitely recommend this
