I was never really a pie lover, until recently. (Recently as in the last 2 or 3 years)

Really up until I started making apple crumble pies after I got married, the only pie I ever ate was chocolate pie. You know the kind with the graham cracker crust and 2 inches of meringue on top. That was “pie” to me. Oh… and Chicken Pot Pie… that was pie to me too. But those where really the only two things I thought of when I thought of Pie. “Pies” were desserts that little old ladies brought to church functions, not something I wanted to make.

But after a few years of being in the kitchen and a little practice in the pie making department, I’m starting to think that maybe I was wrong about pies.

I did some recipe testing and now have an awesome Chocolate Chip Pecan Pie recipe to add to my recipe stash.

So, I want to know…. What is your favorite kind of pie? Do you make them at home? Also, who would you bake a pie for?

What you need to make Chocolate Chip Pecan Pie :

store bought or homemade pie crust dough
eggs
brown sugar
white sugar
melted butter
all-purpose flour
milk
vanilla extract
chopped pecans
mini chocolate chips
pecan halves (for the top of the pie)
mini chocolate chips (for the top of the pie)

How to make Chocolate Chip Pecan Pie:

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 in 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.

I’m glad you reposted this on facebook or I might have missed it. This pie looks “to die for”. Love how it seems like a combination between a pecan pie and a chocolate chip cookie! I’m swooning.
