Chocolate-Bourbon Pecan Pie Easy & Delicious!
1/2 (15 ounce) package refrigerated piecrusts
1-1/2 cups chopped pecans
1 cup (6 ounces) semisweet chocolate morsels
1 cup dark corn syrup
1/2 cup granulated brown sugar
1/4 cup bourbon or water
4 large eggs
1/4 cup butter, melted
2 teaspoons cornmeal
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp salt
Fit piecrust into a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate according to package directions;
fold edges under, and crimp.
Sprinkle pecans and chocolate morsels evenly onto bottom of piecrust; set aside.
Cook, stirring constantly, 3 minutes. Remove from heat. Whisk together eggs and next 4 ingredients. Gradually whisk about 1/4 hot mixture into egg mixture; add to remaining hot mixture, whisking constantly.
Pour filling into prepared piecrust.
Bake at 325 for 55 minutes or until set; cool on wire rack.
Note: This recipe is just as good using water instead of bourbon. The bourbon does give it a bit of kick, but if you don't like the taste of alcohol try just using water.
