    Really good recipe. It was my first attempt at a choc. pecan pie and I was very pleased. First, it was a SUPER easy recipe. Here are some notes:
    1. I rough chopped the pecans. I liked this way better because it spread out more evenly through the pie.
    2. I used mini choc chips and scattered them over the pecans (before the butter/liquid mixture and I didn't measure, I just eyeballed it. The end result wasn't too chocolately at all though. It was the prefect amount.
    3. I left out the bourbon because I didn't have any but would definitely add a little bit next time. It would deepen the flavor and make it richer.
    4. I would add a pinch of salt.
    5. ADD 20 MINS of cooking time in 10 min intervals for runny middle. Wrap crust for 1st half to prevent burning.
    6. I used a deep dish and it was the perfect amount of filling.

    I've made this pie twice. And both times it has turned out perfect. Tip: Candied pecans and both milk and semi-sweet chocolate chips in the pie. Absolutely delicious.

    A holiday hit while celebrating with English who have no such thing in their 'pudding' repertoire. We were liberal with the bourbon, used a good bitter-sweet chocolate and lightly toasted the pecans in a pan before adding. Coupled with Ina Garten's fool proof pie crust and cinnamon spiked whip cream -- fantastic.

    Made this for my husband's pot luck at work. Divided sugar with white & brown. Divided corn syrup with white & brown. Added teaspoon of vanilla & three beans. Used chopped pecans instead of whole.

    I made this for Thanksgiving and it was great! I did leave out the bourbon.

    To keep the pie from being runny, beat the eggs separately before adding to the other ingredients, then be sure to mix together well. If not mixed well, the pie may stay runny.

    Also, if you're worried about the chopped chocolate not melting during baking, melt it in the microwave before adding to other ingredients.

    This pie is amazing! After reading other reviews I decided to use semi sweet chocolate chips instead of chopping the chocolate and reduced the amount of pecans to around 1 cup. I also needed to cook it for an extra 20 mins but it was great! I would definitely make this again.
