Step 1: Prepare the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Place the pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and gently press it into the edges. Trim any excess dough if needed.

Step 2: Mix the Filling

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together:

• Eggs
• Granulated sugar
• Brown sugar
• Melted butter
• Vanilla extract

Whisk until smooth and creamy.

Add the flour and salt, then mix again until fully incorporated.

Step 3: Add the Chocolate and Pecans

Fold the chopped pecans and chocolate chips into the filling using a spatula.

Mix gently so they're evenly distributed.

Step 4: Fill the Pie

Pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust.

Spread it evenly with the back of a spoon.

Step 5: Bake

Bake for 50–55 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center has a slight jiggle.

If the crust begins browning too quickly, loosely cover the edges with aluminum foil during the last 15 minutes.

Step 6: Cool

Allow the pie to cool completely for at least 2 hours before slicing.

This helps the filling set properly.
