As is true for everything that I cook, all credit goes to the source of the recipes, the one who taught me how, and the best cook I know: my mom.

Made with a few classmates (yes! all med. students – can you believe it?)…

Here it is! Chocolate Pecan pie … take a look:

Those of you who requested a piece, you’d better come visit soon because this one’s not gonna last very long ! Here’s the recipe:

Pie Crust

In a large bowl, mix together:

2 Cups White Flour
1 tsp Salt
1 Tbsp Sugar

Combine with:

6 Tbsp Melted Butter
6 Tbsp Shortening
6-8 Tbsp Ice Water

Wrap dough in plastic-wrap, and cool
in the refrigerator while making the filling.

Filling

Stir together:

1 Cup Corn Syrup
1 Cup Brown Sugar
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1/3 Cup Melted Butter
1/3 Cup Melted Chocolate Chips

Beat separately, then add:

3 Eggs

Assembly

Take the crust back out of the fridge, and with a floured pin, roll it until about 1/8th inch thick. Carefully place the crust in a pie dish, and trim the edges to spill over 1 inch from the pan. Fold the edges of the crust in, and press into a wave pattern. Pour in the filling, and top with:

2 Cups Pecans

Bake at 350 for 1 hour and 20 mins. Monitor the crust, because you may need to place aluminium strips around the edges to keep them from burning.
