Categories     dessert

Time 1h45m

Yield 12 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1¼ cups all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling
¼ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon sugar
1 stick chilled unsalted butter, cut in pieces
3 tablespoons ice water
2 large eggs
1 cup sugar
1 stick unsalted butter, melted and cooled
¼ cup Maker's Mark® Bourbon
½ cup all-purpose flour
1½ cups walnuts, toasted and coarsely chopped
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • 1. To make the crust: In a food processor, pulse the flour, salt, and sugar to mix. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal with pea-sized pieces. Sprinkle the ice water on top and pulse until large clumps form. Press the dough into a disk, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour. 2. On a lightly floured work surface, roll the dough into a 12-inch round. Fit into a 9-inch pie dish. Tuck in the overhang and decoratively crimp the edges. Freeze while heating the oven. 3. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prick the bottom of the dough all over with a fork. Line with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until the is golden and dry, about 20 minutes. Remove the parchment and pie weights. Return the crust to the oven and continue baking until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Let cool slightly on a wire rack. 4. Meanwhile, make the filling: In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar. Continue whisking while adding the butter, then the bourbon. Stir in the flour until well combined. Stir in the walnuts and chocolate chips. Pour into the warm pie shell. 5. Bake until the filling is set and the top golden, about 30 minutes. Cool in the pan on a wire rack. Serve warm or room temperature.

KENTUCKY "RACE DAY" CHOCOLATE PECAN PIE



Kentucky

This is an incredibly easy but wonderful pie recipe to celebrate the Kentucky Derby! It is very rich, but it is great with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. To speed up the process, you could use a pre-packaged pie crust, but I highly recommend making a quick and easy crust from scratch!

1/2 cup chocolate chips
1 cup pecans or 1 cup walnuts

Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples: This will give your pie a more complex flavor. Some good options include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn. You can also use a mix of tart and sweet apples.
  • Peel and slice the apples thinly: This will help them to cook evenly. You can use a sharp knife or a mandoline to slice the apples.
  • Don't overfill the pie crust: Otherwise, the filling will bubble over and make a mess. You should leave about 1/2 inch of space between the filling and the top of the crust.
  • Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling: This usually takes about 45-50 minutes. You can check the pie by inserting a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the pie is done.
  • Let the pie cool for at least 30 minutes before serving: This will give the filling time to set and the crust time to firm up.

Conclusion:

Kentucky Rebel Pie is a delicious and easy-to-make pie that is perfect for any occasion. With its flaky crust and sweet-tart filling, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give Kentucky Rebel Pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
