Ingredients
1 crust from 1 box (14.1 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Pie Crusts (2 Count), softened as directed on the box
1 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 eggs
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips (6 oz)
1 1/2 cups of pecan halves
10 pecan halves
1/2 cup whipping cream, whipped
Instructions
1: Heat oven to 325°F. Place the pie crust in a 9-inch glass pie plate as directed on the box for a One-Crust Filled Pie.
2: In a large bowl, beat corn syrup, sugar, butter, vanilla, and eggs with an electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Reserve 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips for topping. Stir in remaining chocolate chips and 1 1/2 cups pecans. Spread evenly in a crust-lined pan.
3: Bake for 55 to 65 minutes, or until deep golden brown and the filling is set. Cool completely, about 1 hour.
4: Line a cookie sheet with waxed paper. In a small microwavable bowl, microwave the reserved 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips on Medium (50%) for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, or until melted; stir. Dip each of 10 pecan halves in chocolate; place on a lined cookie sheet. Refrigerate 15 to 20 minutes or until the chocolate is set. Garnish the pie with whipped cream and chocolate-dipped pecans. Store in refrigerator.
