Recipe(tried): A Great Pecan Pie

I hope that you will receive this recipe.....

PECAN PIE

1 (9-inch) pie crust (recipe follows)
3 large eggs
3/4 cup light brown sugar
3/4 cup light corn syrup
2 TBSP butter, melted
3 TBSP bourbon (May substitute 2 teaspoon Vanilla extract)
1 1/2 cup chopped pecans
3/4 cup chocolate chips (see note)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

In a medium-sized bowl, beat eggs, slightly. Add sugar, corn syrup, melted butter, and bourbon. Stir until well-blended. Stir in pecans.

Put chocolate chips into pie shell and cover with pecan mixture.

Cover edge of pie to prevent over browning. Bake for 25 minutes. Remove shield and continue baking another 25 minutes or until knife inserted halfway between center and edge comes out clean.

9-INCH PIE CRUST
(from Better Homes and Gardens cookbook)

1 1/4 cups flour
1/4 tsp salt
1/3 cup shortening
cold water (TBSP by TBSP)

In large bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut in shortening until mixture is crumbly and shortening is the size of small peas. Add water 1 TBSP at a time until it forms a ball in the bottom of the bowl. Roll out and place in 9 inch pie plate.

NOTE:
For the future, I will melt the chocolate ahead of time and mix it into the rest of the mixture to get a better consistency. Otherwise, I really liked how this came out.
