Picture of the Chocolate Pecan Pie recipe
  • Pastry for single-crust pie
  • 2 cups chopped pecans (about 8 oz.)
  • 1 bar (3 oz.) bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup dark corn syrup*
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup Shedd's Spread Country Crock® Spread, melted

Preheat oven to 350°.

On lightly floured surface, roll pastry into 14-inch circle. Lift and press into 9-inch deep-dish pie plate. Fold excess pastry under and press together to form a thick crust, then flute edges. Fill with pecans, then chocolate; chill.

Meanwhile, in medium bowl, with fork, lightly beat eggs. Stir in corn syrup, sugar, Shedd's Spread Country Crock® Spread and vanilla. Slowly pour into pie crust over pecans and chocolate.

Bake 50 minutes or until center is set, covering edge of crust with aluminum foil after 30 minutes. On wire rack, cool completely. Serve with Breyer's® All Natural Vanilla Ice Cream.

*For a New England twist to this Southern classic, substitute 1/4 cup pure maple syrup for 1/4 cup corn syrup.

Cost per recipe*: $11.93.

Cost per serving*: $0.99.

*Based on average retail prices at national supermarkets.
