Bishop's Choc Chip Pecan Pie

This pie is a staple for the upcoming fall season. It's ridonkulously delicious and comes highly recommended by my fat ass.

1 cup dark brown sugar [you can use light, but dark has a richer flavor]
1/4 cup white sugar
1/2 cup butter [melted]
2 eggs
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract [use the real stuff....]
1 cup chopped pecans
3/4 cup of chocolate chips. [dark or milk.... do not use semi-sweet.]

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

In a large bowl, beat eggs until foamy, and stir in melted butter. Stir in the brown sugar, white sugar and the flour; mix well. Last add the milk, vanilla, nut and chips.

Pour into an unbaked 9-in pie shell. [I don't make pie dough anymore....only for real special occasions. I get my dough from Whole Foods b/c they use real butter in their dough.]

Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes at 400 degrees, then reduce temperature to 350 degrees and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until done. You may want to check before the 40 minutes is over.....cooking times vary with different ovens.

Cool and serve to extremely excited recipients.
