Steps:

• Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

• Whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and beat until just combined. Stir in the milk chocolate chips and pecans.
• Scoop slightly mounded tablespoons of the dough and roll into balls. Arrange about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, position oven racks in the top and bottom thirds of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Bake until the cookies are set and golden on the bottom, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheets for 10 minutes, then transfer to racks to cool completely.

PECAN-CHOCOLATE CHIP PIE

Steps:

• Basic Sweet Pie Crust:
• For the Basic Sweet Pie Crust:
• Sift the flour, sugar and salt into a large mixing bowl. Using your fingertips or a pastry cutter, work the butter and shortening into the flour until the mixture resembles small peas. Work the ice water into the mixture with your fingers just until the dough comes together; be careful not to overmix.
• Form the dough into 2 disks, and wrap each disk individually in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
• Roll out and fit into pans and use for pies as desired. Makes 2 (9-inch) pie crusts
• For the pie:
• Roll 1 piece of the pastry out to a thickness of between 1/8 and 1/4-inch and fit into a deep-dish pie pan. Trim the overhang to about 1-inch, then fold pastry overhang inward along the top edge of the pie pan, press, and crimp the top edges decoratively (so that the crust is thicker along the top edge and stands up slightly above the top edge of the pie pan). Place in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes and up to several hours.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Line the pie crust with parchment paper and fill with pie weights. Place in the oven and bake until the top edges are lightly golden and the bottom of the crust is set and no longer looks doughy, usually about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven, remove paper and weights and set aside to cool. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees F.
• Spread the pecan pieces along the bottom of the par-baked crust. Toss the chocolate chips in a little flour just to coat, then spread them evenly among the pecan pieces.
• Combine the eggs, sugar, brown sugar, cane syrup, corn syrup, vanilla, salt, butter, and remaining tablespoon of flour in a mixing bowl. Mix well. Pour the mixture over the pecans and chocolate chips.
• Bake until the filling sets and pastry is nicely browned, usually about 1 hour.
• Transfer to a cooling rack and allow pie to cool at least 30 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.

CHOC CHIP PECAN PIE

Steps:

• First, make the pastry. Tip the ingredients into a food processor with 1 /4 tsp salt. Blend until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Drizzle 2-3 tsp cold water into the funnel while the blade is running - the mixture should start to clump together. Tip onto a work surface and bring together, kneading briefly into a ball. Pat into a disc, wrap in cling film, and chill for at least 20 mins. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6.
• Remove the pastry from the fridge and leave at room temperature for 5 mins to soften. Flour the work surface, then unwrap the pastry and roll to a circle the thickness of a £1 coin. Use the pastry to line a deep, 23cm round fluted tin - mine was about 3cm deep. Press the pastry into the corners and up the sides, making sure there are no gaps. Leave 1cm pastry overhanging (save some of the pastry scraps for later). Line with baking parchment (scrunch it up first to make it more pliable) and fill with baking beans. Blind-bake for 15-20 mins until the sides are set, then remove the parchment and beans and return to the oven for 5 mins until golden brown. Trim the pastry so it's flush with the top of the tin - a small serrated knife is best for this. If there are any cracks, patch them up with the pastry scraps.
• Meanwhile, weigh the butter, syrup and sugars into a pan, and add 1 /4 tsp salt. Heat until the butter has melted and the sugar dissolved, stirring until smooth. Remove from the heat and cool for 10 mins. Reduce oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3.
• Beat the eggs in a bowl. Add the syrup mixture, vanilla and pecans, and mix until well combined. Pour half the mixture into the tart case, scatter over half the chocolate chips, then cover with the remaining filling and chocolate chips. Bake on the middle shelf for 50-55 mins until set. Remove from the oven and leave to cool, then chill for at least 2 hrs before serving.

CHOCOLATE CHIP PECAN MUFFINS

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin.

• Coat chocolate chips with 1 tablespoon flour and fold into the batter. Fold in pecans. Fill muffin cups 3/4 full of batter.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into a muffin comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes. Cool in the tin briefly before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
