Since it has cooled off and the leaves have finally changed colors, I can actually get into pie mood and enjoy dreaming up Thanksgiving desserts. I’m excited to use Torani Sauces in this fun pie recipe. You’ve probably heard of Torani syrup that top cafe’s use in their drinks.

How to make a Dark Chocolate Pecan Pie

First you’ll want to make your pie crust and then pre-bake it. I’m partial to an all butter pie crust, but you can use your favorite go-to recipe. To pre-bake it, pop it in the oven with some pie weights or dry beans or rice for 20 minutes. 

Take it out and let cool. Then add a mixture of pecans and dark chocolate chips. 

Next, you’ll combine all the wet ingredients and whisk them together. They are basic ingredients, like brown sugar, eggs, corn syrup, and butter, here we also add in the Torani Dark Chocolate Sauce to boost the chocolate flavor. The sauce is made with pure cane sugar and natural flavors. 

Finally, you will pour the wet ingredients over the pecans and chocolate chips in the pie and bake. It will take about 30-40 minutes to bake. Bake just until it is no longer jiggly. Then cool completely before slicing. Be sure to drizzle on additional Torani Dark Chocolate Sauce before serving. 

The Torani Sauces are very versatile and are perfect for mochas and just about any dessert you can dream up. I’m dreaming of using the Torani White Chocolate Sauce in a white chocolate peppermint brownie for Christmas or on top of a peppermint ice cream sundae.
