Instructions
Instructions
Add the flour, salt, and butter in a food processor and pulse until you have an oatmeal-like consistency.
In another bowl beat egg, vinegar, and water until fluffy and pour into flour and mix to combine.
Roll dough on wax paper, knead into a ball, wrap and chill overnight or freeze for later use.
Roll out dough to ¼ inch thick and fit into a 9-inch pie pan, trimming and crimping the edges.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Bake leftover dough scraps with sugar if desired for snacking.
In saucepan, melt sugar, butter, and chocolate over medium-low heat for 5 minutes then cool.
In large bowl whisk eggs, corn syrup, vanilla, salt. Stir in chocolate mixture and chopped pecans.
Pour mixture into pastry shell. Decorate with whole pecans and cover crust edges with protector or foil.
Bake for 45 minutes, remove cover, and bake for 10–15 more minutes. Check center with toothpick.
Cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm with ice cream or whipped cream.
Notes
Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for classic comfort.
