Notes
For a different texture, you can substitute pecans with walnuts or almonds.
Use bittersweet chocolate morsels for a richer chocolate flavor.
For a homemade crust, blind-bake it for a few minutes before adding the filling to prevent sogginess.
Top with caramel or chocolate sauce for an extra sweet touch.
