Cooking was sure to be part of my future because I was surrounded by so many women who participated in family cooking, friends, church events, and the neighborhood. This is somewhat a way for us to bond and communicate with each other. I remember when I was around 18 years old, I was invited to a party. When I was there I had the chance to talk to my friend’s grandmother, by the way, she’s so sweet. She knows I’m really into baking, so she introduces this recipe to me, she said, it was something that she treasures because her husband gave that recipe to her. This Chocolate Pecan Delite is the most intensely flavored pecan pie you will ever make.
INGREDIENTS :
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup butter
- 1 cup finely chopped pecans
- 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese
- 1 cup confectioners’ sugar
- 3 cups frozen whipped topping, thawed
- (1) (3.9 oz) package of instant chocolate pudding mix
- (1) (3.4 oz) package of instant vanilla pudding mix
- 3 cups of milk
- 2 tbsp chopped pecans
DIRECTIONS :
- Preheat the oven at about 175 degrees C (350 degrees F).
- Cut butter into the flour in a medium bowl with a pastry blender or two knives until the mixture resembles a coarse meal. Stir in pecans, press a 9×13-inch baking dish into the bottom, and bake for 15 minutes or until golden. Let it cool completely.
