Recipe Description
Can you believe Christmas is coming up this week? I’ve been brainstorming different pies for Christmas and I think this chocolate pecan pie is something a touch different. I know I didn’t share a regular pecan pie recipe yet, unless you count the pecan and brie hand pies, but I wanted to get a little fancy.
I’m a ginormous fan of pecans. They’re sweet, have sort-of a maple flavor and buttery. My favorite way to eat them is toasted, but I’m really not picky when it comes to pecans. Toasted just makes them extra crumbly. My mother-in-law always sends me some shelled pecans from her trees down in North Carolina. She’s a pretty awesome in-law, if I do say so myself. Now I just need to figure out a way to get my hands on some of her fresh figs.
