BOURBON AND CHOCOLATE PECAN PIE



Bourbon and Chocolate Pecan Pie image

Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     dessert

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/4 cup finely ground pecans
1 tablespoon sugar
Pinch salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cold and cut into small chunks
2 tablespoons ice water, plus more if needed
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
2 ounces unsweetened chocolate
3 large eggs
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup dark corn syrup or sugar cane syrup (such as Steen's)
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
3 tablespoons bourbon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups pecan halves

Steps:

  • To make the pastry: combine the flour, ground pecans, sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Add the butter and mix with a pastry blender or your hands until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Pour in the ice water and work it in to bind the dough until it holds together without being too wet or sticky. Squeeze a small amount together, if it is crumbly, add more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch circle. Carefully roll the dough up onto the pin (this may take a little practice) and lay it inside a 9-inch pie pan. Press the dough into the pan so it fits tightly and trim the excess around the rim. Place the pie pan on a sturdy cookie sheet so it will be easy to move in and out of the oven.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • To make the filling: melt the butter and chocolate in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, remove from heat and let cool. Beat the eggs in a large mixing bowl until frothy and then blend in the sugar. Stir in the syrup, vanilla, bourbon, salt, and the melted butter mixture until well blended.
  • Arrange the pecans on the bottom of the pie crust and carefully pour the egg mixture over them. Bake until the filling is set and slightly puffed, about 45 minutes. Test for doneness by sticking a thin knife in the center of the pie, if it comes out pretty clean, you're good to go. Transfer the pie to rack and cool completely before cutting.

Categories     dessert

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 or 9 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 deep 9-inch crust, or one 10-inch crust
2 ounces unsweetened chocolate
2 ounces of butter
4 large eggs
3/4 cup sugar
1 1/4 cups dark corn syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/2 tablespoons dark rum
8 ounces pecan halves

Steps:

  • Place sheet of foil in bottom and up sides of pie crust. Weight with uncooked beans and bake at 450 degrees for 12 minutes; reduce heat to 400 degrees; remove foil and beans and continue baking 3 minutes longer.
  • Melt chocolate and butter in top of double boiler over moderate heat until melted. Remove from heat and stir to blend. Set aside to cool.
  • Beat eggs in bowl of electric mixer. Add sugar and syrup just to mix. Add vanilla, rum and melted chocolate. Add pecans and mix.
  • Pour into partially baked crust and bake 40 to 50 minutes at 350 degrees. Top should feel soft to the touch and middle should shimmy; as filling cools it will firm up. If top begins to brown too much, cover lightly with sheet of foil. After removing from oven, place on rack to cool. Serve warm, or refrigerate and serve cold with whipped cream.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate. The type of chocolate you use will make a big difference in the flavor of your pie. Use a good-quality semisweet or bittersweet chocolate that has a cocoa content of at least 50%.
  • Toast the pecans. Toasting the pecans will bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy. Toast the pecans in a single layer on a baking sheet in a preheated 350°F oven for 5-7 minutes, or until they begin to brown.
  • Don't overcook the pie. The pie is done when the center is just set. Overcooking will make the pie dry and crumbly.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set properly.
  • Serve the pie with whipped cream or ice cream. This will add a delicious creamy touch to the pie.

Conclusion:

Chocolate pecan pie is a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich chocolate flavor, crunchy pecans, and creamy filling, it is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. Follow these tips to make the best chocolate pecan pie possible.
