This started off as a regular pecan pie for Thanksgiving Day. But it's evolved into something extra special. Ingredients:
1/2 cup chopped pecans |
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips |
1 frozen pie shell (9 inches) |
3 eggs |
1 cup sugar |
1 cup dark corn syrup |
2 tablespoons butter, melted |
1 tablespoon coffee liqueur |
1 teaspoon ground ancho chili pepper |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 cup pecan halves |
Directions:
1. Sprinkle chopped pecans and chocolate chips into pastry shell. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs, sugar, corn syrup, butter, liqueur, pepper and vanilla. Pour into pastry; arrange pecan halves over filling.
2. Bake at 350° for 55-60 minutes or until set. Cool on a wire rack. Refrigerate leftovers. Yield: 8 servings.
