Time 1h15m

Yield 1 9-inch pie, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/4 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, plus
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, 1 stick chilled and cut into small pieces
1/4 cup ice water
2 large eggs
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
2 1/2 cups about 10 ounces pecan halves, coarsely chopped
3/4 cup sweetened flaked coconut
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • In a food processor, pulse the flour with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add the chilled butter pieces and pulse until coarse crumbs form, about 5 seconds. Drizzle in the ice water and pulse just until the dough comes together. Wrap in plastic wrap;flatten to form a disk. Refrigerate until firm, about 15 minutes.
  • On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the dough into a 12-inch round;transfer to a pie pan. Cut the excess dough to leave a 1/2-inch over hang. Using your fingers, roll the dough edge under and crimp. Prick the bottom of the pie shell with a fork; refrigerate for 15 minutes. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • Line the shell with foil and pie weights or dried beans;bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and beans, reduce the heat to 375°F and bake for another 12 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk the eggs. In a heavy, medium saucepan, whisk together the remaining 5 tablespoons butter and 1/2 teaspoon salt with the brown sugar and corn syrup over medium heat until melted and smooth. Whisk the sugar mixture into the beaten eggs. Stir in the nuts and coconut.
  • Spread the chocolate chips in the pie shell. Pour in the filling and bake until set, about 25 minutes. Let the pie cool completely before slicing.

I'm not a huge fan of chocolate pie, but this one is pretty good. The pecans add a nice crunch and the coconut gives it a unique flavor.

I followed the recipe exactly but my pie crust turned out soggy. Not sure what went wrong.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but my friends seemed to enjoy it.

This German Chocolate Pecan Pie was a huge hit at my holiday party! The combination of chocolate, pecans, and coconut is divine, and the pie crust is perfectly flaky. I'll definitely be making this again.
