Chocolate Pecan Pie
Carmen update: Nothing new going on here which is always good! The C-diff continues but we are hoping that six weeks of Vancomycin might get rid of this Super Bug.
Big thanks to Monica the Magnificent for watching the girls today!
Over Christmas break, NY Grandpa made 7 chocolate pecan pies. Six of us ate all of them. I suspect Dave and Uncle Tony ate more than the rest of us! I am certain I did not eat a whole pie all by myself! Last week NY Grandpa made two of these delicious pies at our house.
I think I should add ‘recipes’ to the categories section on the right!
Chocolate Pecan Pie
1 ½ cups coarsely chopped pecans
6 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
1 9-inch unbaked pie crust
3 large eggs
1 cup Karo Syrup (corn syrup)
½ teaspoon Vanilla extract
¼ cup butter, melted and cooled
Directions: Sprinkle nuts and chips over bottom of pie shell. In medium bowl, whisk together eggs, corn syrup and vanilla. Blend in butter and pour mixture into pie shell. Bake at 325°F for 50 to 60 minutes or until firm. Serve slightly warm or at room temperature.
What a delightful sight waiting for me this morning….. I have printed it off (pic and all). I truly appreciate the lo-cal recipes like this one. All my favorite food groups wrapped into one dish. Yummmmm…. Please adopt me…
I agree, I think you should add a recipes category. you put some great sounding (and looking) recipes on here.
I too think you should have a recipe category. I’m always looking for new things to try. Those pies you have put on her look sooooo yummy!
