Decadent Chocolate Pecan Coconut Pie

Ingredients

- 1 pie shell (9-inch, unbaked)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup white granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups pecan halves
- 1 cup flaked coconut

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it's at the perfect temperature for baking.

2. Prepare Pie Shell
Place the unbaked 9-inch pie shell on a baking sheet to catch any potential drips during baking.

3. Melt Butter
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, then set aside to cool slightly.

4. Mix Dry Ingredients
In a medium-sized bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup of brown sugar, and 1/2 cup of white granulated sugar. Stir until thoroughly mixed.

5. Combine Wet Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, beat together 3 large eggs until frothy. Add the melted butter and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, continuing to beat until smooth.

6. Create Filling Mixture
Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until a smooth batter is formed.

7. Incorporate Extras
Fold in 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips, 1 1/2 cups of pecan halves, and 1 cup of flaked coconut into the batter until evenly distributed.

8. Assemble the Pie
Pour the completed filling into the prepared pie shell, spreading evenly with a spatula.

9. Bake the Pie
Transfer the pie to the preheated oven and bake for approximately 50 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is lightly golden brown.

10. Cool and Serve
Allow the pie to cool on a wire rack for at least 1 hour before slicing. This lets the filling firm up, ensuring the perfect slice.
