CHEF JOHN'S CHOCOLATE PECAN PIE

A 5-star pecan pie recipe can't get much better, but anything will always benefit from a little added chocolate! This easy and delicious recipe is based on Elaine Helms' popular Pecan Pie V, but I've added a touch of chocolate which puts this into a whole other league of dessert awesomeness!

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place a foil-lined baking sheet on the lowest shelf.
Place dough in a 9-inch pie pan and crimp edges if desired.
Whisk eggs in a large bowl with a wire whisk until pale and frothy, about 2 minutes. Whisk in milk and vanilla. Mix in brown sugar, white sugar, and flour until incorporated. Pour in melted butter and whisk until fully combined. Stir in pecans.
Spread chocolate chips evenly over the bottom of the pie crust. Gently pour filling over top and gently tap the pie pan so the filling settles.
Bake in the center of the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and bake until crust is golden brown and filling is set and no longer jiggly, 30 to 35 minutes more.
Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature before serving, about 2 hours. You can refrigerate it once it's reached room temperature and serve cold, if desired.
