Chocolate chips and creamy evaporated milk change the tone and texture of this luscious southern classic. You'd better make two while you're at it!

Extra Rich Chocolate Pecan Pie

1 cup (6 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
2/3 cup evaporated milk
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup chopped pecans
1 (9-inch) unbaked pie crust

1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
2. Combine chocolate chips, evaporated milk and butter in a small saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until smooth and creamy. Remove from heat and set aside.
3. In a large mixing bowl, combine sugar, eggs, flour, vanilla and salt. Stir in pecans; mix well. Gradually stir chocolate mixture into egg mixture, blending well, and pour into unbaked pie shell.
4. Bake 40 minutes or until center is set. Cool on a wire rack before serving.
