Hey Friends!
This year for Thanksgiving, I wanted to try something new for dessert, in addition to our traditional favorite: pumpkin pie. I chose a chocolate bourbon pecan pie! I love pecan pie, and chocolate, so this had to happen! Let me tell you, this pie is FANTASTIC!!! I searched in all my dozens of coolbooks, and only found one recipe.
