Ingredients: cup firmly packed brown sugar,cup firmly packed brown sugar,3 tablespoons butter.. please use real butter… don’t make me come over there!,3 tablespoons melted butter,1 cup light corn syrup,4 eggs,1 cup granulated sugar,3 tablespoons honey,1 1/2 cups pecan halves,1/4 teaspoon salt,1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips (I used minis, but any will work),1 teaspoon vanilla(real..don’t you dare use imitation!)
Instructions:
- Prepare pie crust according to Feb. 4th 2010 posting. I thought I would do something a little special with this pie. After I placed my dough into my pie pan, I used a small circle cutter to make little round discs. I moistened the crust edge with beaten egg white and gently pressed them into place all around the pie edge.
- Brushed again with the egg white and sprinkled with sugar. Now doesn't that look so very Martha Stewart? Next I beat the eggs in a large bowl at low speed until they were blended. With a spoon, stir in your sugar, corn syrup, butter, vanilla and salt, until blended.Stir in chips and chopped nuts
- At this point you can embellish the pie with 1 Tbl of good Bourbon or just embellish yourself with the Bourbon… whatever
- For your nut topping you will need
- Cup firmly packed brown sugar
- Tbl butter.. please use real butter… don't make me come over there!Tbl honey
- Cups pecan halves
- In a medium saucepan, combine b. sugar, butter and honey.Cook about 2 minutes or until the sugar dissolves, then add the pecans and stir until coated
- Pour your egg mixture into you pie crust and bake at 350 degree for 35 min. Cover edge with foil if needed to prevent over browning.Now remove the pie from the oven and carefully spoon the pecan topping over the pie. You can arrange the nut halves to look pretty if you like.Back in the oven she goes for about 10- 20 minutes or until bubbly and crust is golden
