This is a family recipe. I’ve no idea where I got it. As is the way with many family recipes.
Essentially, this is pecan pie…with chocolate chips in it. I double-trouble this by taking out the chocolate chips when I make pecan pie.
It’s insanely rich and insanely good.
But I don’t think that’s why Joker loved it so much!
