Ingredients

• 1 piece Unbaked 9-inch pie crust
• 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup Pecans, coarsely chopped
• 3 large Eggs
• 1 cup Light corn syrup
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar, packed
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Place the unbaked pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and crimp the edges if desired. Set aside.

Step 3

Sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the bottom of the pie crust.

Step 4

Sprinkle the chopped pecans evenly over the top of the chocolate chips. Set the pie aside while you prepare the filling.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until they are fully beaten and slightly frothy.

Step 6

Add the light corn syrup, granulated sugar, brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt into the bowl with the eggs. Whisk everything together until completely smooth and combined.

Step 7

Slowly pour the filling mixture over the pecans and chocolate chips in the pie crust. The pecans will rise to the top as you pour.

Step 8

Carefully transfer the pie to the preheated oven. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the filling is set and slightly puffed, and the crust is golden brown. The center should jiggle slightly but not appear liquid.

Step 9

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours to allow the filling to fully set.

Step 10

Slice and serve the pie at room temperature. Optionally, top with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
