Start by melting the butter, and then stir together the first four ingredients. F. Let the crust cool. Raise oven temperature to 400 degrees F. Melt and stir together the chocolate and butter over low heat.
Double boilers are handy here.
Place the pecans in the pie shell. Pour the chocolate mix over the pecans in the pie shell. F. Let the pie cook approximately another 30 minutes. The pie is ready when the surface starts to crack close to the center of the pie. Cool pie completely before serving, unless you enjoy the feeling of sweet, molten chocolate adhering to and burning into the roof of your mouth.
