Ingredients
Crust
- 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour¹
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt²
- ½ cup cold butter cut into small pieces
- 1/4 cup ice water
Filling
- 3 large eggs
- 3/4 cup brown sugar packed
- 1/3 cup light corn syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt3
- 2 cups pecans
- 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips4
Instructions
Pie Crust
- In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, and salt together until combined.
- Cut in the butter until it forms a shaggy dough.
- Stir in the ice water. You may need to add in additional ice water 1 teaspoon at a time as needed for the dough to come together.
- Turn the dough a couple times and pat into a disk on a floured surface.
- Wrap in dough tightly in plastic wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a 12-inch circle.
- Lay the dough over a 9-inch pie plate.
- Fold the edges of the dough under and crimp.
- Chill until firm.
Pie Filling
- Preheat the oven to 375F.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until lightly beaten.
- Whisk in the brown sugar, corn syrup, vanilla, melted butter, and salt until combined.
- Pour the egg mixture into a large saucepan, and cook, whisking regularly, just until it begins to thicken and bubble, about 3 minutes over medium.
- Coarsely chop the pecans and stir into the egg mixture along with the chocolate chips.
- Pour the filling into the chilled pie crust.
- Bake on the lower third of the oven for about 35-45 minutes, or until the center of the pie is set.
- If the pie crust begins to brown too quickly, cover with a pie shield or tent the crust with foil.
- Transfer the pie to a wire cooling rack and let rest for at least 1 hour before cutting and serving.
Notes
- To properly measure the flour, stir it to break it up. The lightly spoon into a measuring cup and level off.
- Or a pinch (1/8 teaspoon) table salt.
- Or 1/4 teaspoon table salt.
- Feel free to sub an equal amount of milk chocolate chips for a sweeter pie or bittersweet chocolate chips for a less sweet pie.
