A delightful twist on the classic Kentucky pie, this recipe combines the richness of pecans and chocolate chips in a buttery, flaky crust.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Ensure the oven is fully preheated before placing the pie inside for even baking.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, and corn syrup until smooth.
Whisk vigorously to incorporate air, which helps create a light texture.
Melt the butter and mix it into the filling along with the vanilla extract and salt.
Allow the melted butter to cool slightly before adding to prevent cooking the eggs.
Fold in the pecans and chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Gently fold to avoid breaking the pecans and chocolate chips.
Pour the filling into the pie crust, spreading it evenly.
Place the pie dish on a baking sheet to catch any drips during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
Check the pie halfway through baking and cover the edges with foil if they brown too quickly.
Allow the pie to cool completely before slicing and serving.
Cooling allows the filling to set properly, making it easier to slice.
