Ingredients

Pastry:

175 grams flour

100 grams cold butter, diced

1 tbsp caster sugar

1 egg yolk, beaten with 1 tbsp water

Filling:

55 grams butter

3 tbsp cocoa powder

225 ml golden syrup

3 eggs

70 grams dark brown sugar

175 grams shelled pecans, chopped

12-14 pecan halves to decorate

To serve

Whipped cream

Ground cinnamon for dusting

Directions

Sift the flour and put it in your food processor, add the butter and pulse till the it resembles fine breadcrumbs. Transfer to a large bowl and stir in the caster sugar.Stir in the egg yolk. Knead lightly to form a firm dough, cover with Clingfilm and refrigerate for 1 ½ hours. Roll out the chilled pastry on a lightly floured surface and use it to line a 20cm tart tin.

Filling:

Heat the butter gently on medium saucepan till melted, sift in the cocoa powder and stir in the syrup. Place the eggs and sugar in a large bowl and beat together. Add the syrup mixture and the chopped pecans and stir. Pour the mixture into the prepared pastry case. Arrange the pecan halves in a decorative way around the edge of the surface.

Bake in a preheated oven to 375 F for 40 minutes or until the filling is set. Leave to cool and serve warm with a spoonful of whipped cream, dusted with cinnamon, or chill in the fridge and serve cold. The taste is great in both cases.

Sounds fabulous. Only problem is pecans are very expensive in England. Might have to bring some back next time I'm in the U.S.

My husband loves loves pecan pie, one Christmas I made the mistake of making a Chocolate pecan pie and he had a panic attack. I thought it was the best ever and I dont like pecan pie much. I have to say it looked a lot different than yours, it was much more chocolate like- maybe that is where I screwed up.
