Caramel Chocolate Pecan Pie
Ingredients:
– 1 9-inch pie crust, store-bought or homemade
– 1 cup caramel sauce
– 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
– 1 cup chopped pecans
– 3 large eggs
– 1/2 cup granulated sugar
– 1/2 cup light brown sugar
– 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
– 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and place the pie crust in a pie dish, pressing it firmly against the bottom and sides. Crimp the edges as desired and set aside.
2. In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the caramel sauce until it is warm and pourable. Spread the caramel sauce evenly over the bottom of the pie crust.
3. Sprinkle the chocolate chips and chopped pecans over the caramel layer.
4. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, light brown sugar, flour, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
5. Pour the egg mixture over the chocolate chips and pecans, spreading it evenly to cover the pie.
6. Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with foil to prevent burning.
7. Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. For an extra special touch, you can drizzle additional caramel sauce over each slice before serving.
8. Enjoy a slice of this irresistible Caramel Chocolate Pecan Pie with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra decadent treat.
