I'm a pie baker and this is one my family frequently requests. With the brandy infused cherries and chocolate chips, it's an awesome twist on a pecan pie.—Sonya Labbe, Santa Monica, California

Editor's Note:For chocolate whipped cream, beat 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream until it begins to thicken. Add 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup and beat until stiff peaks form.

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°. Toss cherries with brandy; let stand, covered, 1 hour.
  2. For crust, mix flour, sugar and salt. Whisk together oil and milk; add to flour mixture, tossing with a fork just until blended. Press onto bottom and up sides of a greased 9-in. pie plate.
  3. For filling, drain cherries, reserving 1 tablespoon brandy. Beat butter, sugar and salt until blended; gradually beat in eggs and reserved brandy. Stir in flour. Fold in pecans, chocolate and cherries; pour into crust.
  4. Bake until top is golden brown, 40-45 minutes. Cool on a wire rack. If desired, serve with whipped cream. Refrigerate leftovers.
