This is a southern recipe for a rich chocolate pie with pecans. It is probably mine and my daughter, Keri's favorite dessert :)
1 9-inch pastry for a single pie crust
1 1/2 cups white sugar
3 1/2 tablespoons cocoa
1/2 cup butter, melted
6 oz. evaporated milk
2 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup chopped pecans
Preheat oven to 400 degrees
Mix together sugar, cocoa, and melted butter
Stir in evaporated milk, beaten eggs, vanilla, and pecans
Pour mixture into unbaked pie shell. Bake 10 min. Reduce heat to 325 degrees and bake for 30-45 minutes or until the pie rises and cracks form.
Let cool (pie will drop)
Put in fridge until ready to serve.
When ready to serve. heat each piece in microwave for a few seconds and then top with cool whip or serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
This is hands down my favorite also! Amazing! In fact, one night I was so excited to come home from work to have a slice after Keri made it. But needless, to say our least favorite roommate ate the ENTIRE thing!
