Fudgy Pecan Pie image

This started out as just a plain chocolate pie that I "dressed up" for company. Now when I serve it, guests often tell me, "Your pie looks too good to eat - but I won't let that stop me!" -Ellen Arndt, Cologne, Minnesota

This is the best pecan pie recipe I've ever tried. The filling is so smooth and creamy and the crust is flaky and buttery.
