This pecan pie is so easy to make and it tastes just like my grandma's. The crust is flaky and the filling is rich and creamy. I love that I can make it ahead of time and it still tastes great.

This pecan pie is amazing! The crust is flaky and the filling is gooey and sweet. I love the addition of chocolate chips. It really takes this pie to the next level. I will definitely be making this pie again!
