Chocolate Pecan Pie

 Pecan Pie is a Holiday Favorite on tables around the country! Sometimes Pecan Pie is so incredibly sweet that your teeth almost hurt. You would think that the addition of Chocolate to this Pecan Pie would make this even sweeter – but contrary to popular belief, the addition of chocolate chips actually cuts some of the sweetness and gives you the best of everything pie has to offer!

Chocolate added to almost anything makes it even better (in my opinion). My family 100% agrees with me on the deliciousness of this pie. I am not even trying to put into words the deliciousness of the pie (I should have written down the quotes while family was eating in order to share with you)This pie was one of the 1st to go from the table and even my brother-in-law who is really watching what he is eating went for seconds on it. See the beauty of the inside of this pie… that piece had to be set aside as I was cutting/packaging leftovers for everyone.
