How to Make Chocolate Pecan Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Fit a 9-inch unbaked pie crust into a glass pie plate; crimp the edges.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together: 1 cup light corn syrup, ½ cup granulated sugar, 3 large eggs, ½ cup (1 stick) melted unsalted butter, ½ cup melted bittersweet chocolate, 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and ¼ teaspoon salt until completely smooth and well combined.
  4. Stir in 1 ½ cups chopped pecans (or walnuts).
  5. Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust.
  6. Place the pie plate on a baking sheet to catch any spills.
  7. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set (it should jiggle slightly in the center when shaken gently).
  8. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. This allows the filling to set properly.
  9. Serve chilled, topped with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream (optional).
