Chocolate Bacon Chess Pie

Step 4 Assemble and Bake

Pour mixture into pie shell.

Bake for 30 minutes, then sprinkle bacon bits over the top of the pie.

Bake for another 30 minutes.

Immediately after removing pie from over, sprinkle 1 oz finely chopped chocolate over the top of the pie. The heat from the pie will melt the chocolate and help to "cement" the bacon bits into place.

Allow pie to cool for 30 minutes before serving.
