Part chocolate pie, part pecan pie, and completely irresistible. This Southern classic combines toasted pecans, rich chocolate, and a touch of bourbon in a gooey filling made with Pete & Gerry’s Organic Free Range Eggs. Serve it for the holidays or any special occasion but always with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or freshly whipped cream.

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Press pie crust into a 9-inch pie plate. Cut a ring of aluminum foil the size of the pie dish.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together Pete & Gerry's eggs, corn syrup, brown sugar, salt, flour, vanilla, and bourbon until smooth.
  3. Stir in melted butter, chocolate chips, and pecans.
  4. Pour mixture into the prepared pie crust and cover the edge with the foil ring.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove foil; bake 20-25 minutes longer until filling has puffed and is golden. A knife inserted in the center should come out clean.
  6. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt. Cool on a wire rack and serve with whipped cream or ice cream (if desired).
