How to Make Chocolate Pecan Pie
You won’t believe how simple it is to make this dreamy Chocolate Chip Pecan Pie at home!
Here’s what you’ll do…
1. First you’ll want to preheat your oven.
2. Then carefully roll out your homemade or store bought pie crust into a 9″ or 9.5″ pie plate. Flute or crimp the edges for a pretty finished touch.
3. In a large mixing bowl, beat your eggs until they’re light and fluffy.
4. Add Sugar, Flour, Melted Butter, Vanilla, Salt, Lemon Juice, and Corn Syrup to the bowl, and mix thoroughly. Then stir in your chocolate chips with a large spoon.
5. Pour the mixture into your pie crust shell, and bake for 45 – 50 minutes, or until set and golden.
6. Once you remove the pie from the oven, allow it to cool on a wire rack for a minimum of 3 hours to finish setting. For the best results, I like to let me mine set up overnight.
