Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step
10 mins

In a small bowl, combine the chopped walnuts and bourbon, allowing the nuts to soak while you prepare the rest of the filling. (10 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

In a large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, light corn syrup, and lightly beaten eggs until well combined. (5 minutes)

04

Step
5 mins

Gradually whisk in the melted and cooled butter until fully incorporated. Stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and vanilla extract. (5 minutes)

05

Step
2 mins

Gently fold in the bourbon-soaked walnuts, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the filling. (2 minutes)

06

Step
3 mins

Pour the filling evenly into the two unbaked pie crusts. (3 minutes)

07

Step
50 mins

Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set but still slightly jiggly in the center. (50 minutes)

08

Step
1 hrs

Let the pies cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. (60 minutes)

For a deeper bourbon flavor, use a high-quality Kentucky bourbon.
Toasting the walnuts enhances their flavor and adds a delightful crunch to the pie.
If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with foil during the last 15 minutes of baking.
Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra touch of indulgence.
Store any leftover pie in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
