Many of you have already seen my daughter’s pony party here, today I am sharing the recipe for “Kentucky Pie” in mini mason jars. This is also known as Derby Pie, however, that name is trademarked so I had to give it my own name. This is a great chocolate pecan pie with bourbon. These pies are easy to make and would be a great fall treat! Perhaps Thanksgiving take home goodies?
The finished product looked like this. I dressed up the lids by printing the pattern onto cardstock and cutting out circles. I then tied with rope. Nice and simple !
I found the recipe here on Survival of the Scrumptious. She shares the recipe for homemade crust and filling. I took the easy way out and used store bought crust and added the homemade {easy} filling.
Here is the filling recipe:
1 stick melted butter
1 c sugar
1 c corn syrup
4 eggs
1 T bourbon
¾ c. chocolate chips (give or take)
¾ c pecans
Press the crust into the jars. Put a spoon full of chocolate chips and pecans in bottom of jar top with filling. Bake them at 350 for about half an hour. Cool and enjoy!
This was a perfect fit for our pony party…don’t you think?
