Ingredients
- Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon
- Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon
- Eggs
- 3 large
- All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon
- Brown sugar
- 1 cup, packed
- Granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup
- Unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup, melted
- Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup
- Pecans
- 1 cup, chopped
- Pie crust
- 1 (9-inch) unbaked pie crust
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted unsalted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, flour, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Gently fold in the chopped pecans and semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- Pour the decadent filling into the unbaked pie crust, spreading it evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the pie is set and the top is golden brown. You can check for doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center; it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
- Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool on a wire rack for at least 1 hour before slicing and serving.
- Slice and enjoy this delightful chocolate chip pecan pie, perhaps with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra treat!
Tips
- For added flavor, try toasting the pecans lightly in a dry skillet before adding them to the filling.
- If you prefer a richer taste, consider substituting some of the semi-sweet chocolate chips with dark chocolate chips.
