New Orleans Chocolate Bourbon Pecan Pie

My family loves this pie at Thanksgiving, Christmas or really any holiday of the year. So put on some jazz, pour yourself some java, and have a piece of this delicious dessert. The chocolate chips and the bourbon add a delicious change to the normal pecan pie. Top with whipped cream and enjoy.

Ingredients

• ½ teaspoon salt
• 3 eggs
• 1 cup corn syrup

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 2

Beat the sugar, corn syrup, bourbon, eggs, butter, and salt together in a mixing bowl until smooth and creamy. Fold in the pecans and chocolate chips. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust. If desired, cover the edges of the pie with aluminum foil strips to prevent excessive browning.
