[CHRISTMAS-RECIPE] Chocolate Caramel Pecan Pie

Chocolate Caramel Pecan Pie


3 cups pecans
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, melted
1 (14 oz.) pkg. caramels
2/3 cup whipping cream, divided
1 pkg. (8 squares) semi-sweet baking chocolate
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla


Preheat oven to 350F.

Place 2 cups of the pecans in food processor, cover. Process pecans until
finely ground, using pulsing action. Mix with granulated sugar and butter,
press into a 9-inch pie plate. Bake 12 minutes or until lightly browned.
Cool completely. If pie crust puffs up during baking, gently press down with
back of spoon.

Microwave caramels and 1/3 cup of the whipping cream in a microwaveable
bowl on high for 3 minutes or until caramels are melted, stirring after each
minute. Pour into crust. Coarsely chop remaining 1 cup of pecans and
sprinkle over pie.

Place chocolate, remaining whipping cream, powdered sugar and vanilla in
saucepan. Cook and stir on very low heat just until chocolate is melted. Pour
over pie. Gently spread chocolate to cover top of pie. Refrigerate 4
hours.
