Ingredients
- 1 (14.1-oz) pkg refrigerated pie crusts
- 2 (4-oz) bittersweet chocolate bars, chopped
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- 4 Tbsp bourbon, divided
- ¾ cup dark corn syrup
- 1 cup sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 2 Tbsp butter, melted
- ¼ tsp salt
- 2 cups chopped pecans
- Bourbon Whipped Cream (recipe follows)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Unroll pie dough, placing one on top of the other. Roll together into a 15-inch circle.
- Press into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate. Trim edges to within 1 inch of pie plate; turn dough under, and crimp as desired.
- Line pie shell with parchment paper and fill with pie weighs or dried beans. Bake 12 minutes.
- Remove parchment and pie weights; let cool 15 minutes.
- Place chocolate in a medium bowl.
- Heat cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until bubbles form around edges of pan. Pour hot cream over chocolate, and let stand 5 minutes.
- Stir until chocolate is melted and smooth; stir in 2 Tbsp bourbon. Pour into partially baked pie crust. Chill 1 hour.
- Whisk together corn syrup, sugar, eggs, melted butter, 2 Tbsp bourbon and salt. Stir in pecans. Pour over chilled chocolate layer in pie shell. Bake 1 hour or until center of pie is set, covering with foil halfway through baking to prevent excess browning, if necessary.
