My husband loves pecan pie and I love chocolate. So one of our favorite deserts combine both. This pie is so good I end up having to make about 6 every year at the holidays between our two families get together. So with out further adue Bourbon Chocolate Pecan Pie.

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
3 medium eggs or 2 extra large
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup dark corn syrup
1 cup sugar
1/8 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Vanilla
2 ounces bourbon

Place in preheated oven and bake for 50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the center
