I just made this wonderful chocolate pecan pie. However, after reading many of the reviews, I added another cup of finely CHOPPED pecans, which seemed to make the pie thicker and not as watery as some described. I also changed the sugar to brown sugar, added Amaretto instead of bourbon, a pinch of salt and a pinch cayenne pepper. I sprinkled chocolate chips over the nuts and OMG! With those small tweaks, this pie was fantastic and everyone wanted more! Thank you Paula, and your reviewers.

Craazzzy Good! Thanks Paula Deen for making me look so good while hosting the holidays! This recipe was such a hit at Thanksgiving, a few lucky recipients will be receiving them as part of their Christmas gifts. One hint..( at least using my substandard oven, I increased the original temp to 400 for 15 minutes, then dropped it down to 375 and cooked until ready (it took longer than 25 minutes. The nuts had more of a roasted taste than before, and it was AH-MAZING!!
