    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!!

    I love this pie and so does my family. I have been making it every year for both Thanksgiving and Christmas for the past 3 years. It is a staple to our holidays and I'm always told I have to make it. The way the chocolate and pecans blend together and hint of bourbon in the background is the perfect marriage of flavors.

    Don't tell my southern grandma but this is the best pecan pie ever! It was so easy to make and even my 2 year old wanted more. I would recommend over and over.

    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.
