Chocolate Pecan Pie with Pretzels
Our sweet Chocolate Pecan Pie with salty pretzels is absolutely divine! If you’re a chocolate lover and a fan of classic pecan pie, this is the dessert for you!
Much like my Homemade Sweet Potato Pie, this chocolate pecan pie bar is delicious for Thanksgiving.
I saw this recipe on the cover of a magazine while waiting to check out at the grocery store. I’m a total sucker for reading all the headlines and gawking at the photos – I can’t help it! Sometimes a recipe catches my eye, like this one did, and I end up Googling it before I’ve even gotten to the car. This was just one of those times.
Ingredients
- Refrigerator Pie Crust
- Eggs
- Butter
- Pecans
- Mini Pretzels

This pie is so rich, gooey, and delicious! Even Mr. Juggling Act, who isn’t a big fan of nuts, had to admit it was pretty tasty. And my Dad, who isn’t a big chocolate fan, but loves nuts, enjoyed it, too.
If I can make those two happy with the same pie, you know it’s a winner!
