Cooking Notes

Really good recipe. Minor modifications based on supplies - sub'd dark brown sugar for light, and used bittersweet chocolate. That offset the sweetness nicely. Don't skip the bourbon, it adds so much smoky depth. I also chopped 1 cup of pecans and stirred those into the egg mixture, then poured that over the layer of pecan halves and chocolate. 50 minutes was perfect. This was absolutely gobbled up!

Agree with adding bittersweet though I might add a little less. Was generous with the bourbon. this was a huge thanksgiving hit.
