Indulge in the rich, Southern decadence of Kentucky Bourbon Chocolate Nut Pie, a dessert that combines the classic flavors of chocolate, bourbon, and toasted nuts for an irresistible treat. This easy-to-make pie starts with a flaky unbaked crust, filled with a luscious blend of dark corn syrup, melted butter, and bourbon for a flavorfully sweet base. Semi-sweet chocolate chips and chopped pecans or walnuts provide delightful texture in every bite, while the bourbon infuses the pie with a subtle, smoky warmth. With just 15 minutes of prep time and a golden finish after baking, this crowd-pleasing dessert is perfect for holidays, family gatherings, or any occasion that calls for a touch of Southern charm. Serve it warm or at room temperature with a dollop of whipped cream for the ultimate sweet finale!
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare your unbaked 9-inch pie crust by placing it into a pie dish. Crimp the edges if desired and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and all-purpose flour until well combined.
Add the eggs to the bowl and whisk until smooth and fully incorporated.
Pour the melted butter into the mixture and stir to combine.
Add the dark corn syrup, bourbon, and vanilla extract, and whisk until the mixture is uniform and smooth.
Stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and chopped nuts. Mix until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 50 minutes or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before serving. This allows the flavors to fully develop.
Slice and serve plain or with a dollop of whipped cream for an extra treat.
