Equipment

  • Food Processor
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Plastic Wrap
  • Rolling Pin
  • 9-inch Glass Pie Plate
  • Baking sheet
  • Whisk
  • Oven
  • Rack for Cooling

Ingredients

  • 2 cup Pecan about 7 ounces
  • 3/4 cup Dark Brown Sugar
  • 3 large Eggs
  • 2/3 cup Light Corn Syrup
  • 1 tbsp Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 2 tbsp Unsalted Butter melted
  • 1/2 tbsp kosher Salt
  • 3 tbsp Bourbon
  • 3/4 cup Semisweet or Bittersweet Chocolate Chips

Instructions

Make the Pie Crust:

  • In a food processor, blend the flour with sugar and salt.
  • Add the cold butter and pulse until it looks like coarse meal.
  • Transfer to a bowl and mix in the ice water.
  • Knead the dough a few times on a floured surface, shape it into a disk, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Roll out the dough on a floured surface to a 12-inch round.
  • Fit the dough into a 9-inch glass pie plate, trim the overhang to 1/2 inch, fold the edge under, and crimp. Refrigerate until firm.

Make the Filling:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Toast pecans on a baking sheet for about 8 minutes, then coarsely chop.
  • In a large bowl, whisk eggs with brown sugar, corn syrup, vanilla, melted butter, bourbon, and salt until well mixed.
  • Stir in pecans and chocolate chips evenly.

Bake the Pie:

  • Pour the filling into the pie shell.
  • Bake on the bottom oven shelf for about 55 minutes, or until the pie's center is set.
  • If the crust edge browns too quickly, cover it with foil halfway through baking.
  • Transfer the pie to a rack and let it cool for at least 1 hour before serving.
