This is absolutetly yummy!! I took this to several work functions and potlucks and this was always one of the first things gone!! I grew up eating pecan pie but this particular recipe comes from one of those little recipe booklets, I can't remember which one, with my tweaking of it of course! Ingredients:
3 eggs |
1 cup sugar |
1 cup dark corn syrup |
2 tablespoons butter, melted with |
2 ounces semisweet chocolate |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 1/2 cups pecan halves, toasted |
2 tablespoons bourbon (or any liqour you like) |
1 pie crust |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In bowl, or blender is how my mom always made pecan pies, beat eggs with fork. Add sugar, corn syrup, butter w/chocolate, vanilla, and Bourbon. Stir till well blended. This is why the blender is a great and easy idea.
2. Pour into pie crust. Stir pecans into mixture, till all are incorporated, or all covered with goo :).
3. Bake for 50-55 min, or when knife inserted in center comes out clean.
4. *To toast pecans put into dry skillet on medium-high heat. shake skillet around till they become brown and fragant and you can really notice their color change. This will take about 7-10 minute.
