• Ready In: 50mins
• Ingredients: 8
• Yields: 1 tart
• Serves: 12

ingredients

• 1⁄3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 3⁄4 cup pecan halves, finely chopped
• 3⁄4 cup brown sugar, packed
• 1 egg
• 2 tablespoons light corn syrup
• 1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 (15 ounce) package refrigerated pie crusts, soften as directed

directions

1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
2. Combine chocolate chips and butter in microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 20-40 seconds until melted and smooth. Stir after each 20 second interval.
3. Add chopped pecans, brown sugar, egg, corn syrup, and vanilla to the melted chocolate. Set aside.
4. Unroll one pie crust onto a lightly floured baking stone and roll to a 13 inch circle.
5. Unroll second pie crust. Gently fold in half and cut into 12 strips (approximately 3/4 inch wide).
6. Spoon chocolate/pecan mixture onto the center of the circular dough and spread in an even 10 inch circle, leaving about 2-3 inches of dough on the outside.
7. Carefully twist six of the pie crust strips and place over filling in horizontal rows. Twist remaining strips and place vertically, creating a lattice effect.
8. Firmly press the ends of the strips onto the edge of the crust.
9. Fold edge of crust over the ends of the strips, pinching the edges to seal.
10. Bake 28-30 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
11. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
12. Cut into wedges and serve!
