How to Make Mocha Pecan Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Prepare the crust: In a large bowl, cut 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter into 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Gradually add 3-4 tablespoons ice water, mixing until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
  4. Form the dough into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 30 minutes.
  5. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to a 12-inch circle. Carefully transfer to a 9-inch pie plate. Trim and crimp the edges.
  6. Prepare the filling: In a blender, combine 1 cup brewed strong coffee, 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk, 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips. Blend until completely smooth.
  7. In a separate bowl, gently combine the filling with 1 1/2 cups pecan halves. Stir just until the pecans are coated.
  8. Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust.
  9. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 10 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for another 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set around the edges but the center is still slightly jiggly.
  10. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. This allows the filling to set properly.
