How to Make Black Bottom Pecan Cheesecake Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Unroll pie crust and carefully fit it into a 9-inch pie plate. Trim and crimp the edges.
  3. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and heavy cream. Microwave at medium power for 1-1 1/2 minutes, or until chips are mostly melted. Whisk until completely smooth and set aside.
  4. In a separate bowl, beat softened cream cheese, 1 egg, 1/2 cup sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/4 teaspoon salt with an electric mixer until completely smooth and creamy.
  5. Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the pie crust, spreading evenly.
  6. Pour the cream cheese mixture over the chocolate layer.
  7. In a medium bowl, whisk together corn syrup, melted butter, 3 eggs, 1/4 cup sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  8. Stir in the pecans.
  9. Pour the pecan mixture over the cream cheese layer.
  10. Bake for 55 minutes, or until the center is set. After about 45 minutes, loosely cover the edges of the pie with aluminum foil to prevent excessive browning.
  11. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
  12. Drizzle with chocolate syrup before serving, if desired.
