Amazing Chocolate Pecan Pie with Honey Pecan Topping- I hate half the pie, REALLY!!!

Holidays in my house must include my Chocolate Pecan Pie on the menu.

I have tried many recipes over the years but my favorite pie is the Chocolate Pecan Pie (with the Honey Pecan Topping) from my Gulf Coast Favorites Cookbook. I made the pie the other day to shoot a photo, and honestly, I couldn’t quit eating it. I have REALLY finished half a pie before in one day, of course, some of the pieces were slivered. We unanimously agreed that it was the best pie we had put in our mouth.
