Delicious Pecan Pie
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this pie for Christmas, and it turned out great. I had no problems with the recipe at all. I was baking at a high... altitude, so it did take a little longer to bake. I left out the whiskey to make it more kid-friendly. Will be making it again.Read more

Tasty but needs more cooking time
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is the best Pecan Chocolate pie I have had. My Husband even asked me to make it again and thats rare. I did have to... cook it about 15 minutes longer than called for but otherwise it was perfect!Read more

Food Network Should Know Better....
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

This pie was terrible...the baking time is wwwaayy off. With all the baking time complaints, perhaps Ms. Deen should review... this one again? Or, take it off the web site until consistant results can be achieved. I followed the recipie exactly, and the pie was nowhere near set...still very raw, and my oven temp. is calibrated too!! I upped the temp back to 375 degrees as recommended by another person, but ended up with an unedible, burned pie. What a waste of expensive ingredients, as I threw it away. Will NOT be making this again needless to say.Read more

Great Pie and Easy Recipe
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was my first pecan pie and it turned out to be delicious. I love regular pecan, but everyone makes that so I wanted... something different. I think the addition of the whisky (I used Irish) helped to enhance the flavor of the chocolate and carmel combination without tasting of alcohol. I did used chocolate chips. I think the key to the cooking time is the added words, "or until the filling is set." Everyones oven is different and the altitude and humidity can effect cook times. Rarely does anything cook in exactly the same time on each occasion. My family has asked me to make this again for Christmas. Read more

Delicious!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this on Thanksgiving and it was a huge hit, EVERYONE loved it! Like other reviewer's comments said, the cooking time... is off by about 20 or so minutes. From my experience making pecan pies, I anticipated on it taking almost an hour to bake.Read more
