Fudge Pie

Ingredients:

  • 3/4 cup butter
  • 3 (1-ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate 
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 – 1/2 cups sugar
  • 3/4 cup flour
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup chopped pecans – * toasted (reserve 1/4 cup for garnish)
  • Toppings: vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup

Fudge Pie Directions:

*Toast the pecans in a dry stainless-steel skillet over medium heat.  It's best to toast pecan halves before cutting in order to toast the nuts evenly.  Cook, stirring frequently, until they are a deep golden brown and fragrant, about 5 minutes.  Stir frequently to prevent uneven toasting or burning.

Preheat oven to 350°
