Decadent Bourbon Pecan Chocolate Pie with Smoked Sea Salt

Ingredients

- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs
- 1/4 cup bourbon
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- 1 pre-made pie crust (9-inch)
- Vanilla ice cream, for serving
- Whipped cream, for serving
- Smoked sea salt, for garnish
- 1/4 cup pecan halves, for garnish
- Caramel drizzle, for garnish

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. Prepare the Filling:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar, granulated sugar, flour, and salt. Mix well to combine.

3. Incorporate Wet Ingredients:
Add melted butter, vanilla extract, and eggs to the dry mixture. Use a whisk to blend until smooth and creamy.

4. Add Bourbon:
Stir in the bourbon until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

5. Fold in Chocolate and Pecans:
Carefully fold in the chocolate chips and chopped pecans until they are evenly coated with the batter.

6. Prepare the Pie Crust:
Place the pre-made pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish. Carefully press it down to fit the dish snugly.

7. Fill the Pie Crust:
Pour the chocolate pecan mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly.

8. Bake the Pie:
Transfer the pie to the preheated oven. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and slightly puffed. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.

9. Cool and Garnish:
Allow the pie to cool for at least 30 minutes. Once cooled, garnish with pecan halves, smoked sea salt, and a light drizzle of caramel.

10. Serve:
Slice the pie and serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a dollop of whipped cream on the side.
