CHOCOLATE PECAN PIE



Chocolate Pecan Pie image

Fudge Chocolate Pecan Pie is the best, decadent dessert to hit your holiday table!

Provided by Karina

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups pecans
6 ounces 70% chocolate (roughly chopped into pieces (or semisweet chocolate))
1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder ((I use Hershey's))
3/4 cup golden syrup (maple syrup, rice syrup or light corn syrup)
3/4 cup light brown sugar (packed)
2 tablespoons all purpose flour
2 tablespoons bourbon (optional)
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
3/4 teaspoon salt
4 large eggs (whisked)
9 inch pie crust (or pie shell)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven 350°F (175°C) with rack on lowest position in oven. Prepare pie crust. If using uncooked pie crust, prick the base a few times with a fork to prevent air bubbles before pouring in the filling.
  • When oven is hot, toast pecans on a baking sheet for 10 minutes. Roughly chop half of the toasted pecans. Reserve the other half for decorating the top of the pie.
  • Fill a small pot 1/3 of the way with water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
  • Reduce heat to low and place a heat-proof bowl on the pot. Fill the bowl with the chocolate and stir continuously until the chocolate is melted.
  • Add the butter to the chocolate, stirring well to combine until butter is melted. Mix in the cocoa powder until completely dissolved.
  • Take the bowl off the heat. Whisk in syrup, sugar, flour, bourbon, vanilla and salt.
  • Add the eggs and whisk well to combine. Fold in chopped pecans. Pour into prepared pie shell and top with remaining pecans.
  • Bake for 50-55 minutes or until centre is just set to the touch but still a little jiggly underneath. If your pie is browning too fast, loosely tent with foil.
  • The pie will be puffed up as soon as it comes out of the oven, but it will deflate and flatten as it cools. Let cool on a wire rack for about 4 hours and serve warm, or refrigerate to chill overnight.

CHOCOLATE PECAN PIE

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     pies and tarts, dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (150 grams), plus more for dusting
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, preferably high-fat, European style, chilled and cubed
2 to 4 tablespoons ice water, as needed
1 1/2 cups pecan halves (170 grams)
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped (56 grams)
3/4 cup dark corn syrup
4 large eggs
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar (100 grams)
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder (5 grams)
2 tablespoons bourbon
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

Steps:

  • Make the crust: In a food processor, pulse together the flour and salt. Add butter and pulse until the mixture forms chickpea-size pieces. Add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and pulse until the dough just comes together. It should be moist but not wet. On a lightly floured surface, gather the dough into a ball. Flatten into a disk with the heel of your hand. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 2 days.
  • On a lightly floured surface, after removing plastic wrap, roll out dough to a 12-inch circle. Transfer crust to a 9-inch pie plate. Fold over any excess dough, then crimp edges. Prick crust all over with a fork. Chill crust for 30 minutes.
  • While the dough chills, heat the oven to 375 degrees. Line chilled crust with aluminum foil and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake until very pale golden, 5 to 10 minutes longer.
  • Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees. Spread pecans on a rimmed baking sheet. Toast nuts, shaking pan occasionally, until fragrant, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool.
  • Make the filling: In a small saucepan over low heat, melt butter and chopped chocolate, stirring until smooth; cool.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together cooled chocolate-butter mixture, corn syrup, eggs, sugar, cocoa powder, bourbon and salt. Pour the mixture into the prepared crust. Arrange pecans over filling. Transfer to a large rimmed baking sheet. Bake until the filling is just set when the pan is jiggled, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove pie from the oven and cool completely on a wire rack before serving.

  • Bake in the center of the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and bake until crust is golden brown and filling is set and no longer jiggly, 30 to 35 minutes more.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature before serving, about 2 hours. You can refrigerate it once it's reached room temperature and serve cold, if desired.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the pie will taste. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Toast the pecans. Toasting the pecans will bring out their flavor and make them more fragrant.
  • Don't overcook the pie. The pie is done when the center is just set. If you overcook it, the filling will be dry and crumbly.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the flavors to develop.
  • Serve the pie with whipped cream or ice cream. This will add a delicious creamy richness to the pie.
