Calories: 544kcal
Ingredients
- 1 9 inch Deep Dish Pie Crust unbaked
- ⅓ cup butter
- ½ cup baking cocoa
- ⅔ cup sugar
- ¼ teaspoon Salt
- 3 Eggs beaten
- ¾ cup corn syrup light
- 1 cup pecans chopped
- ½ cup pecan halves
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°.
- Melt butter in a saucepan over low heat.
- Add Cocoa. Stir constantly until the cocoa has melted. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
- Add sugar, corn syrup, salt, and eggs. Mix well.
- Stir in chopped pecans. Mix well.
- Pour into pie shell. (This filled my pie shell to the very top).
- Top with Pecan Halves. Place the pie pan on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper while baking to catch any drips.
- Bake at 375° for 40 minutes. Cool Completely.
- Top with vanilla ice cream if desired.
Notes
- Use real butter.
- Make sure your pecans are fresh.
- If your crust is browning too fast, this is an easy problem to fix. You will need to make a pie shield. Wrap foil around the outside edge of your pie, covering the crust. Fold down the edges of the foil to hold it in place.
- Place the pie pan on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper while baking to catch any drips.
- Place the cooked pie on a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
