Chocolate Pecan Pie Recipe
Directions:
1. Roll out 1 (11-inch) pie crust, lay it in a 10-inch pie pan, and crimp the edges. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2. In a large bowl, combine the corn syrup, sugar, salt, eggs, vanilla, and honey, mixing well. Stir in the melted butter. Pour the mixture into the pie crust. Top with pecans and chocolate chips.
3. Bake the pie, rotating halfway through cooking, for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the crust is brown and the pie filling is bubbly. Serve this pie warm with vanilla ice cream or sweetened whipped cream.
*Makes 1 10-inch pie.
Pie Dough Recipe
Directions:
1. In a food processor, combine the flour, salt and sugar. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal, about 10 seconds. Add the ice water in a slow stream, pulsing the mixture no more than 30 seconds, until it begins to form a ball.
2. Remove the dough from the processor and divide into 2 pieces. Wrap each piece in plastic wrap and flatten with the palm of your hand. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. When ready to use, roll out each piece on a floured surface using a floured rolling pin to make 2 pie crusts.
*Makes 2 (9 or 10-in.) crusts.
