This rich Texas chocolate pecan pie is filled with gooey chocolate, toasted pecans, and a sweet custard-like filling wrapped in a buttery crust.

  • Total Time: 1 hour 10 minutes
  • Yield: 1 pie 1x

Ingredients

Scale

1 (9-inch) pie crust

1 ½ cups pecans, chopped or halved

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 cup corn syrup (light or dark)

½ cup brown sugar

3 large eggs

¼ cup butter, melted

1 tsp vanilla extract

¼ tsp salt

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Place your pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and crimp the edges.

2. Sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the bottom of the crust.

3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, corn syrup, brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla, and salt until smooth.

4. Stir in the pecans.

5. Pour the mixture over the chocolate chips in the crust.

6. Place the pie on a baking sheet and bake for 50–60 minutes, until the center is set.

7. Cool at room temperature for at least 2 hours before slicing.

Notes

Let the pie cool fully before slicing to avoid a runny filling.

To toast pecans, place them in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3–5 minutes.
