Nancie here, back a few days later with an essential for this post. I’m adding the recipe for Kelly’s sweet treat of a choco-pecan pie, down beneath my original post on 10/10/10.
Ten minutes away from airtime on the Morning Show with Chuck and Don, so I can’t do much more right now than tell you that this pie looks fabulous, and I know it will taste fabulous, but I can’t verify that cause it’s still warm from the oven. And I get to talk with Chuck and Don on the air while it cools down. Life is good! Back later this morning with the recipe….
Took me longer than ‘later this morning’ as I predicted on Monday, but here at long last is the recipe for this tasty pie, from “Cooking with Kelly” of the Chuck and Don Show on KMA Radio of Shenandoah, Iowa.
