Southern Chocolate-Pecan Pie

This is really good. One thing you should know, it was very sweet to me, so I cut back on the Syrup and sugar. The next I made it, it was perfect! I cut the syrup to less than 2/3 and the sugar less than 1/2. But that’s me!

Prep: 20 min.
Bake: 1 hour 20 min.
Serves: 6 to 10

2/3 cup The Original Alaga Syrup
1/2 cup sugar
1 dash salt
1/4 cup butter
1 (6-ounce) package semisweet chocolate chips
1 (9inch) deep-dish unbaked pie shell
1 cup pecan halves
4 large eggs
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp. vanilla extract

1.Preheat oven to 325 degree.
2.In a small saucepan, combine syrup, sugar, and salt. Bring to boil over medium heat, stirring until sugar is melted. Remove from heat. Add butter, stirring until melted. Set aside to cool slightly.
3. Sprinkle chocolate chips in bottom of unbaked pie shell. Sprinkle pecans over chocolate chips. Set aside.
4. In a large mixing bowl, combine eggs, flour, and vanilla. Beat until smooth. Add syrup mixture in a slow, steady stream, beating constantly. Pour syrup mixture evenly into prepared pie shell.
5.Bake until filling is set, approximately 1 hour 20 min. Center of pie will puff slightly when pie is in oven but will settle when cool. Cool completely on a wire rack. Enjoy!!
