Description
Absolutely delicious, although very rich. Pie version of the Turtles® chocolates. I used to sell this pie to a restaurant and the customers loved it.
Ingredients
- 1 cup pecans
- 1 (9 inch) pie shell, baked
- 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup butter
- ¼ cup corn syrup
- ⅔ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 egg yolk
- 3 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- Place pecans into bottom of pie shell.
- To Make Filling: In a heavy saucepan over medium heat
- cook condensed milk
- brown sugar
- butter and corn syrup. Stir and bring to a boil; stir continuously for at least 5 minutes. Remove from heat
- then slowly beat with a spoon until mixture starts to thicken; will take about 2 minutes. Be sure not to over beat or it will harden too much. Pour mixture into pie shell; cover and refrigerate for about an hour. Filling ingredients may be halved to make for a less rich pie.
- To Make Topping: In a medium saucepan
- cook chocolate and butter over low heat until melted together. Stir in condensed milk; mix well. Remove from heat; allow to cool just enough so that yolk won’t cook when added
- but not so cool that the chocolate hardens; cooling time will be about 3 minutes. Stir in egg yolk to chocolate mixture; spread over cooled filling. Place pie back in refrigerator and cool for another hour.
