Ingredients
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • ¼ cup white sugar
  • ½ cup butter, melted
  • 2 eggs at room temperature
  • 1 tbsp all purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1¼ cup chopped pecans, plus extra for decorating the top
  • ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)
  • ½ cup coconut flakes (optional)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. In a large bowl, beat eggs until foamy, and stir in melted butter. Add in the brown sugar, white sugar and the flour; mix well. Lastly add the milk, vanilla, nuts, chocolate chips, and coconut flakes.
  3. Pour into an unbaked 9-in pie crust (make sure it does not contain lard or hydrogenated oils). Decorate the top with some pecans.
  4. Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes at 400 degrees, then reduce temperature to 350 degrees and bake for 20 additional minutes, then reduce temperature to 325 and bake an additional 10 minutes until middle of pie is settled. Use a timer to keep track of the time :)
  5. Let cool completely. Pie will set more as it cools. Serve with ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream
