Ingredients
Scale
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ cup granulated sugar
3–4 tablespoons ice water
1 cup light corn syrup
½ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup brown sugar
4 large eggs
¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup bourbon
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 ½ cups pecan halves
Instructions
Make the crust: In a large bowl, mix the flour, sugar, and salt. Add the cold, cubed butter and use a pastry cutter to blend until it resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually stir in the ice water until the dough comes together. Form it into a disc, wrap it in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven: While your dough is chilling, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Roll out the dough: On a floured surface, roll the chilled dough into a circle that’s about 12 inches in diameter. Carefully transfer it into a 9-inch pie plate, pressing it into the sides and trimming the excess.
Prepare the filling: In a large bowl, whisk together corn syrup, granulated sugar, brown sugar, melted butter, and eggs until smooth. Stir in vanilla and bourbon, mix well. Toss in chocolate chips and pecan halves.
Pour & bake: Pour the filling into your prepared crust, spreading it out evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for about 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is set and has a slight jiggle when nudged. Cover the crust edges with foil if they start to brown too much.
Cool and enjoy: Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack. Serve with whipped cream or ice cream.
Notes
A delightful blend of crunchy pecans, rich chocolate, and a splash of bourbon in a beautifully baked pie.
