Old Fashioned Pecan Pie Recipe
You know my Old Fashioned Pecan Pie Recipe is made without corn syrup, right? It is! I can’t stand to make it sweet for sweet’s sake, I want flavor! And my good old-fashioned pecan pie recipe has that, for sure.
For this Chocolate Pecan Pie Recipe, you can use a pre-made crust, a mix, a store-bought crust OR better yet make it yourself. Any of them will work.
For the BEST taste you know I’m going to tell you to at LEAST try my recipe, right? It’s quick and easy in the food processor. But if you don’t have one I’ve got directions for making it by hand too.
At least go look at my Easy Pie Crust Recipe. Watch the videos, I walk you through it. I even share a live Facebook video.
The first time I made pie dough it was terrifying. I was so afraid to ruin it. But miraculously it turned out just fine. I think I even mixed it by hand without a food processor. In my recipe book, I wrote “homemade pie crust pretty AND tasty”

How to store chocolate pecan pie
Same rule as every other pecan pie here. It is a custard, so cool it completely, cover it loosely, and refrigerate it within 2 hours. It keeps 3 to 4 days.
One thing worth knowing is that the chocolate firms up hard in the cold. Pull this one out 20 or 30 minutes before you want to serve it, and it goes right back to the soft, fudgy texture you baked it for. Straight from the refrigerator, it slices cleanly but eats a bit stiff.
