All-purpose flour, for work surface
2 large eggs
1/2 recipe Pie Dough
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate. The chocolate is the star of this pie, so make sure you use a good quality semisweet or bittersweet chocolate.
  • Toast the pecans. Toasting the pecans will bring out their flavor and make them more fragrant.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the pie tough.
  • Bake the pie until the center is just set. The pie will continue to cook as it cools, so you don't want to overbake it.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set properly.
