I have a favorite pecan pie. I think I posted it before but this one was officially a Southern Chocolate Pecan Pie….though there wasn’t much difference, except the addition of Chocolate Chips. So, I thought I would share the new version.
Southern Chocolate Pecan Pie Recipe
This is another of those recipes that I have used for so long that I don’t remember who gave it to me. But once I found it, I never strayed.
Hope you enjoy! This time, I made it to serve at the Wellspring Kitchen Meal (soup kitchen).
But I was able to sneak a piece before it was served. Picture isn’t great, but it will do.

- Add in the sugar and salt.
- Put the chocolate and pecans in the pie shell…..spreading them evenly.

You might want to hide the pie shell edges with foil for the first part of the cooking process to keep it from getting too brown.

Yummy! I love Chocolate Pecan Pie–I use the old southern recipe, then add a couple of cubes of baking chocolate. The chocolate chips sound perfect.
