Turtle Pie recipe

1 servings

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

Instructions:

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; will take about 2 minutes.

Be sure not to over beat 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 in condensed milk; mix well.

Remove from heat; allow to cool just enough so that yolk won't cook when added, but not so cool that the chocolate hardens; cooling time will be about 3 minutes.

Stir in egg yolk to chocolate mixture; spread over cooled filling.

Place pie back in refrigerator and cool for another hour.
