Ingredients

  • Crust:
  • 1 Pillsbury® refrigerated pie crust, softened as directed on box
  • Pecan Filling:
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup dark corn syrup
  • 3 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt (optional)
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
  • Chocolate Filling:
  • 1 cup hot milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 (12 ounce) bag semisweet chocolate chips
  • Topping:
  • 1 cup whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Chocolate curls (optional)

Directions

  1. Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Place pie crust in 9-inch glass pie plate as directed on box for One-Crust Filled Pie.
  2. In small bowl, beat eggs with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Add granulated sugar, corn syrup, butter and salt; beat 1 minute. Stir in pecans. Pour into crust-lined pie plate. Cover crust edge with 2- to 3-inch-wide strips of foil to prevent excessive browning; remove foil during last 15 minutes of bake time.
  3. Bake 40 to 55 minutes or until center of pie is puffed and golden brown. Cool 1 hour.
  4. Meanwhile, in blender or food processor, place chocolate filling ingredients. Cover; blend about 1 minute or until smooth. Refrigerate until mixture is slightly thickened but not set, about 1 hour 30 minutes.
  5. Gently stir chocolate filling; pour over cooled pecan filling in crust. Refrigerate at least 1 hour or until firm before serving.
  6. Just before serving, in small bowl, beat whipping cream, powdered sugar and 1/4 teaspoon vanilla with mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form. Spoon or pipe whipped cream over filling. Garnish with chocolate curls. Cover and refrigerate any remaining pie.
