Ingredients
  • 1 cup Light corn syrup
  • 1 cup Firmly packed light brown sugar
  • 3 large Eggs
  • 1 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups Coarsely chopped pecans
  • 4 1/2 oz Semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 stick (2 tbsp) Butter, melted
  • 1 9-inch Frozen deep-dish pie shell, thawed
Directions
  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 350&# 194;°F (175ðC).
  2. 2
    In a large bowl, whisk together corn syrup, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla until smooth and fully combined.
  3. 3
    Stir in the chopped pecans, chocolate chips, and melted butter until evenly distributed.
  4. 4
    Pour the filling into the thawed pie shell.
  5. 5
    Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until the center is set and no longer jiggly.

Note

Don't be concerned if the filling in the center sinks a bit as it cools; this is typical for custard-based pies.

For convenience, you can buy pecans already broken into pieces in the baking section of your supermarket.

Ensure the pie shell is fully thawed but still cold before adding the filling to prevent the crust from becoming soggy.

Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
