Ingredients

• 1 pre-made pie crust
• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• 1.5 cups pecan halves
• 3 large eggs
• 1 cup light corn syrup
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup light brown sugar, packed
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Place the pre-made pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish, fitting it snugly and crimping the edges if desired. Set aside.

Step 3

Scatter the semisweet chocolate chips evenly across the bottom of the pie crust.

Step 4

On top of the chocolate chips, arrange the pecan halves in an even layer. Set aside.

Step 5

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, light corn syrup, granulated sugar, light brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until fully combined and smooth.

Step 6

Carefully pour the filling mixture over the chocolate chips and pecans, ensuring the liquid distributes evenly and covers most of the pecans.

Step 7

Place the pie dish on a baking sheet to catch any potential spills. Transfer it to the preheated oven and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the filling is set and only slightly jiggles in the center when moved.

Step 8

Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack (this step helps the filling fully set).

Step 9

Serve the pie at room temperature or slightly warmed, either plain or with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
