    I usually strike out when it comes to making pecan pie, but this recipe helped me finally to make a yummy pie for Thanksgiving. I didn't use the crust recipe for this pie, however-I used the easy crust recipe from "How to Boil Water" because it looked easier. The pie tasted decadent, especially served with homemade butter pecan ice cream.

    this is just as easy to make as a regular pecan pie, but the booze and the chocolate bring it up to heavenly. Will make again.

    I was very disappointed in this recipe. I am not a novice cook, but the crust part of this pie was totally unworkable. I would appreciate someone telling me what in the world I did wrong. I have a long history of baking, but this one got me.

    I used pecans and walnuts, added a little vanilla extract and a pinch of salt to seal the flavor. I liked the color of the pie and tasted wonderful.

    I am a Personal Chef, and had a request from a customer to make a Chocolate Pecan Pie, and chose Gale Gand,everything I have tried from Gale never fails to impress our customers, and this one was our best, WOW, Decadent, will now be feature staple in our repetoire. Very expensive, but well worth it, Very Very Easy. Of course we only used the best of ingredients.

    I made this for a New Years Day party and it turned out extremely well and got a lot of good reviews. I served it with Brown Sugar Whipped cream (recipe on epicurious.com. I will definitely make this again. Be careful not to spill any filling over the sides of the tart, it will caramelize and make it extremely difficult to get the tart out of the pan!!!

    I tried this recipe out last year for my finacee (before he was my finacee because he loves his aunt's traditional pecan pie. So I thought this would also be to his liking, but with a twist of flavor. It turned out that he liked it even more than his aunt's pie! It was really great, the combination of pecans and chocolate is just so delicious and rich. This is one of my favorites, not to mention one of my fiancee's favorites also ;
