Chocolate, nuts, brown sugar, bourbon...no special occasion needed for this decadent dessert. It's a family favorite and so easy. Serve with lightly-sweetened whipped cream, dairy whipped topping, or vanilla ice cream and warmed chocolate syrup.

Time 1h25m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 extra large eggs
2 tablespoons corn oil
1 tablespoon bourbon whiskey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¾ cup all-purpose flour
¾ cup white sugar
¾ cup packed light brown sugar
1 ⅛ cups butter, softened
1 ½ cups chopped toasted pecans
9 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
1 (9 inch) unbaked pie crust

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  • Beat eggs in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer on high speed until eggs are foamy, about 3 minutes; beat corn oil, bourbon whiskey, and vanilla extract into the eggs until just incorporated.
  • Beat flour, white sugar, and light brown sugar into egg mixture until smoothly blended, then beat in butter.
  • Gently stir pecans and chocolate chips into the filling.
  • Fit the pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and pour the filling into the crust.
  • Bake in preheated oven until top is golden brown and a knife inserted halfway between the center and edge of the filling comes out clean, 55 to 60 minutes.
  • Cool the pie on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
