This recipe for chocolate bourbon pecan pie is such a great one to know! Best of all, it’s very easy to make. For the filling, all you need is one bowl and something to stir with!
For the crust, you can make a homemade pie crust or use one from the grocery store. Then, just pour the filling into the crust and pop it in the oven! One hour later, your house will smell like the most wonderful mixture of crisp pastry, toasted pecans, brown sugar, bourbon and butter. Yum!
For a gluten-free version, simply sub a gluten-free crust and use gluten-free flour instead of all-purpose flour in the filling.
We make this pie every Thanksgiving and Christmas, and it’s always a hit. Hope it becomes a holiday tradition with your family, too!

I’m looking forward to baking this pie! As for the leaf decorations, you just laid them on the pie and served the leaves with each serving. It’s such a beautiful pie. Loved how you drizzled chocolate and sprinkled gold on some of the leaves. Great idea!
Hello Ines! Thanks so much for watching and for your comment! I’m excited for you to try the pie 🙂 Yes, with the leaves you can either bake them on the pie, or bake separately and serve with each piece. When you bake them separately, you can add the chocolate drizzle and gold decoration. You can also “paint” the leaves with food coloring — it’s so much fun, especially for fall. I have an apple pie video coming up where I demonstrate that method, so stay tuned for that! Thanks again for watching and for leaving a note. Always love to connect with viewers ❤️, Marie
