Ingredients

  • 1 store bought or homemade pie crust dough
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1.5 cups brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 2 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 cup mini chocolate chips
  • 1 cup pecan halves (for the top of the pie)

1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (for the top of the pie)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350F.
  • Press pie dough into a 9- inch pie dish. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, mix together the brown sugar, sugar and eggs. Mix until everything is combined and creamy.
  • Mix in the melted butter, milk, flour and vanilla extract. Stir to combine.
  • Slowly mix in 2 cups chopped pecans and 1 cup mini chocolate chips.
  • Pour the mixture into the pie shell. Sprinkle, or neatly arrange, pecan halves over the top of the pie. Sprinkle ¼ cup mini chocolate chips over the top of the pie.
  • Bake the pie for 50-60 minutes or until done. When the pie is done, the edges should be firm with little bit of a jiggle in the middle of the pie. 
  • Set the pie on a wire rack and let cook for 10 minutes or so. Middle of pie will firm up with cooling. 

Yield: 1 Chocolate Chip Pecan Pie
