Chocolate pecan bourbon pie
Delightful Pastries is out to prove that pecan pie is much more than a Thanksgiving dessert, with this chocolatey, boozy riff on the American classic.
Ingredients
6 oz. butter, at room temperature 1 cup brown sugar 3/4 cup corn syrup 1/4 cup molasses 5 eggs 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour 6 oz. pecan halves 6 oz. bittersweet chocolate, chopped 2 tablespoons bourbon 1 nine-inch pie shellDirections
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
In an electric mixer, beat the butter with the sugar until smooth. Add the corn syrup and molasses, then the flour and mix well.
Beat in the eggs one by one, scraping down after each egg. Add the vanilla extract and salt. Fold the pecans and chocolate by hand, add the bourbon.
Bake for 45 to 60 minutes, until the top is dry and the filling is barely jiggling. Let cool.
