Ingredients:
 
1 cup pecans

1 (9 inch) pie shell, baked

1 cup sweetened condensed milk

1 cup brown sugar

1 cup butter

1/4 cup corn syrup

2/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

2 tablespoons butter

1 egg yolk

3 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk

 
Directions:

Place pecans into bottom of pie shell.

To Make Filling:

In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, cook condensed milk, brown sugar, butter and corn syrup.

Stir and bring to a boil; stir continuously for at least 5 minutes.

Remove from heat, then slowly beat with a spoon until mixture starts to thicken, it will will take about 2 minutes. Be sure not to over beat the mixture or it will harden too much.

Pour mixture into pie shell, cover, and refrigerate for about an hour. Filling ingredients may be halved to make for a less rich pie.

To Make Topping:

In a medium saucepan, cook chocolate and butter over low heat until melted together.

Stir the condensed milk into the chocolate mixture, making sure to mix well. Remove pan from heat and allow to cool enough so that egg yolk won't cook when added, but not so cool that the chocolate hardens. Cooling time should be about 3 minutes.

Stir the egg yolk into the chocolate mixture and spread over cooled filling.

Place pie back in refrigerator and cool for another hour.
