Category: Pies - Miscellaneous
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

1 unbaked pie shell
6 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup flour
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped pecans
Whipped cream to garnish, optional

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Sprinkle the chocolate chips all over the bottom of the uncooked pie shell and set aside.

In a separate bowl, combine the butter, sugar, and flour, until well blended; add the eggs, one at a time and blend in well. Add the vanilla and pecans, mix and pour evenly into pie shell on top of the chocolate chips.

Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes, remove and place strips of aluminum foil around the crust edges to prevent overbrowning and continue baking for 30 to 40 additional minutes, or until set. Let cool completely. Serve plain, with a dollop of whipped cream, or even better, top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Variation: Use pecans, or switch the pecans for walnuts, use 1/2 cup of granulated sugar with 1/2 cup of brown sugar, add a splash of Kentucky bourbon to the filling if you like and fold in the pecans/walnuts and chocolate chips, pour mixture into the pie shell, and you'll have something close to a copycat Kentucky Derby Race Day pie.
