- 1 unbaked [9] inch deep dish pie shell frozen or homemade
- 1 cup roughly chopped pecans toasted
- 1 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup salted butter melted cooled to room temperature
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 Tbsp Kentucky bourbon
- 1 tsp pure vanilla

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spread pecans in a single layer on a baking sheet. Toast for 6-8 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
- In a medium bowl, toss together pecans, chocolate chips and flour.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together cooled butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, salt, bourbon, vanilla and eggs until fully blended. Add to pecans and chocolate chips. Mix well.
- Pour evenly into pie crust. Bake for 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes, lay a piece of foil on top. Lower the oven temperature to 325°F. Continue to bake the pie for another 20-30 minutes or until the center of the pie is set when gently shaken. Cool on a cooling rack for 4 hours.
- Serve with vanilla ice cream or a dollop of fresh whipped cream.
- Store leftovers tightly covered at room temperature.
Notes
- Make your own pie crust using my Flaky Pie Crust recipe.
- If you need to prepare this pie ahead of time, it re-heats in the microwave beautifully.
