Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the pie.

  2. 2

    Mix the Filling

    In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of granulated sugar, 1 cup of light corn syrup, 1 tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract, and 0.25 teaspoons of salt. Whisk until well blended.

  3. 3

    Add Eggs

    Crack 3 large eggs into the mixture and whisk until the eggs are fully incorporated.

  4. 4

    Add Pecans

    Fold in 1.5 cups of pecans into the chocolate filling mixture.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Pie Crust

    Place a pre-made pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish and ensure it is evenly fitted.

  6. 6

    Fill the Crust

    Pour the chocolate pecan filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly.

  7. 7

    Bake the Pie

    Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is slightly cracked.

  8. 8

    Cool and Serve

    Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool at room temperature for at least 2 hours before slicing. Serve plain or with whipped cream.
