My Momma's Chocolate Pecan Pie


Pie Crust (homemade or pre-made...whatever you'd prefer!)
1 pkg (4oz) Baker's Semi Sweet Chocolate
2 tbsp margarine
1/3 cup sugar
1 cup dark corn syrup
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/4 cup pecans (You pee in a can, you eat a pa-CON.) I prefer the pieces, not the halves.
New pants, one size larger than your current pair

Melt chocolate and butter together (microwave or double boiler). In another bowl mix together sugar, corn syrup, eggs, and vanilla. Mix in chocolate mixture and pecans. Dump into a dough lined pie plate and bake at 325 for 40-50 minutes. Before serving, put on the bigger pants.
