Chocolate Pecan Pie Recipe ????????????????????
My chocolate pecan pie recipe is easy and delicious. Since I make it without corn syrup, it is not as sweet as most traditional recipes. The cocoa powder and toasted pecans really make this special, so it is the perfect dessert for Thanksgiving, Christmas, or Sunday dinner.
The most unique aspect of my recipe for chocolate pecan pie is that I make it without corn syrup. Although corn syrup is a major ingredient in most pecan pies, I do not use it because I feel that it makes the pie overly sweet: I prefer to just use sugar. Even though almost any type of sugar, or other sweetener, would work in this recipe, I always use brown sugar in pecan pie because I like the bit of extra flavor from the molasses. However, you could definitely use white sugar, and I think that other sweeteners like maple syrup would be good choices as well. Whatever sweetener you use, I think it is important for the pie to be sweet, but not too sweet, so that is why I like to only use 1 cup of sugar. That way, it is sweet, but not too sweet.
My chocolate pecan pie recipe would not be complete without cocoa powder, so I decided to add 4 tablespoons. Although my pie was delicious, some people may not like the very strong chocolate flavor. That is why I recommend using somewhere between 2 to 4 tablespoons of cocoa powder: 4 tablespoons if you want a super chocolatey pie that is not as sweet, 2 is you want a sweeter pecan pie with some chocolate in the background. In my opinion, this pie with 4 tablespoons of cocoa powder reminded me of 65% or 70% dark chocolate: unmistakably chocolatey but still sweet. My friend tried this pie, and he said that it was very chocolatey and delicious, so honestly, whatever the amount of cocoa powder you decide to use, I am sure it will be great.
Since chocolate has such a strong flavor, I highly suggest roasting the pecans before adding them to the pie. Although I think that you could make this pie by simply opening a bag of pecans, mixing the ingredients for the filling in a bowl, and then pouring the custard mixture into a pie shell, I highly recommend roasting the pecans in the oven. Using chopped pecan pieces, spread them out in a single layer on an ungreased baking sheet and roast at 350 F for 3 minutes, stir, then return to the oven for another 3 minutes. Even though this step requires just a few minutes of extra effort, it makes a huge difference: the flavor and aroma of toasted nuts is incredible. Like I said, chocolate has a very strong flavor, so I think it is important to roast the pecans to bring out the flavor so that the nuts can better compete with the chocolate. This is especially important if you make this pie with 4 tablespoons of cocoa powder instead of 2 or 3. If you use a lot of coca powder and do not toast the pecans, I think that this pie would be more like a chocolate pie that has a lot of nuts rather than a nut pie that also has chocolate.
When I finally cut into this pie and tried it, I was immediately impressed. This chocolate pecan pie is easy and delicious, so it is one of the best Thanksgiving desserts. It would also be perfect for Christmas, a Sunday dinner, a birthday, or even as a cure for the Monday Blues. Even though it was delicious as is, I think that perhaps adding some bourbon, or maybe even a bit of lemon, orange, or cinnamon, would be a great way to change up this recipe. If you are looking for a new dessert recipe for the holidays, be sure to give this one a try. You will fall in love with it at first bite.????????????????????
