Note: You will want to cut this pie into smaller-than-average wedges...It's very rich

Ingredients

  • Pastry for 9-inch one-crust pie
  • 1 1/4 cups light corn syrup
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 bar(4 oz.)sweet cooking chocolate
  • 1/2 cup evaporated milk
  • 3 eggs, slightly beaten
  • 1 cup pecan halves

Directions

Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare the pastry. Combine corn syrup, sugar, chocolate and milk in a saucepan. Heat, stirring constantly, just until the chocolate is melted. Gradually stir the hot mixture into eggs, then stir in pecan halves. Pour into the pastry-lined pan. Bake 50-60 minutes. (Center will appear soft.) Cool. Try this pie topped with sweetened whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
