I always make it because so many people love it, but it's not my favorite....I really like it made with bourban and chocolate chips, but my dad likes the original recipe so I make it that way for him.


chocolate bourbon pecan pie
1 cup white sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup butter
4 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup bourbon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup chopped pecans
1 deep 9 inch pie shell
directions:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees f. Spread chocolate chips in the bottom of the pie shell.
In a saucepan combine sugar, corn syrup, and butter. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until butter melts and sugar dissolves. Cool slightly.
In a large bowl combine eggs, bourbon, vanilla, and salt. Mix well. Slowly pour sugar mixture into egg mixture, whisking constantly. Carefully pour mixture into pie shell.
Bake in preheated oven for 50 to 55 minutes, or until set and golden.

Love the pecan pie if myself or mom makes it other wise it's iffy all depends on the nuts used an how good they are an even then not all pecan pies created equal.
What most of you are calling the burbon pecan pie is I think actually Kentucky
derby pie very very popular around the Kentucky Derby at Derby time... it too is very good even then I prefer my own to esp store bought.
