How to Make Extra Rich Chocolate Pecan Pie

  1. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk, and 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter.
  2. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy. Remove from heat.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 3 large eggs, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. Gently fold in 1 cup pecan halves.
  5. Gradually whisk the warm chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, ensuring everything is well combined.
  6. Pour the filling into an unbaked 9-inch pie crust.
  7. Bake in a preheated 375°F (190°C) oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the filling is set and the edges are lightly golden brown. A knife inserted near the center should come out with moist crumbs attached.
  8. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. For best results, chill for at least 2 hours before serving.
