Carol’s Fudge Georgia Pecan Pie

Ingredients

• • 1/2 cup butter
  • 3 squares unsweetened chocolate
  • 4 eggs
  • 3 tablespoons light corn syrup
  • 1-1/2 cups sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup Georgia pecan halves (or coarsely chopped)
  • 2 9-inch frozen pie crusts, thawed

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

In microwave-safe bowl or in saucepan over low heat, melt butter and chocolate. Stir, remove from heat and set aside to cool.

In a large bowl beat eggs, corn syrup, sugar, salt and vanilla. Add chocolate mixture and mix well. Fold in pecans.
