Carter Family Recipes

  • 2½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup chilled unsalted butter
  • ⅛ teaspoon sea salt
  • 5 to 7 tablespoons ice water
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter
  • 3 eggs
  • ¾ cups granulated sugar
  • ¾ cups light corn syrup
  • ¼ cup chocolate chips plus extra to garnish
  • ½ cup pecan pieces
  • Whipped Cream
  1. Preheat oven to 350ºF.
  2. Prepare pie crust by blending the flour, butter and salt in a food processor. Add ice water a little at a time while blending. Do this until it forms a dough ball (you can also do this in a bowl using a pastry blender or forks to mix).
  3. Melt butter and set aside.
  4. In a large mixing bowl mix eggs and sugar; add syrup and melted butter. Spread chocolate chips and pecan pieces over bottom of pie crust. Pour egg and sugar mixture over chocolate and pecans.
  5. Bake in a preheated oven for about 35 minutes until pie is golden brown. Top with Whipped Cream, if desired.
