Steps:
- Make the crust: Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Butter a 9-inch pie plate; set aside. Grind pecans in a food processor, or chop very finely with a knife. In a medium bowl, combine flour, pecans, sugar, and salt. Cut in cold butter with a pastry cutter until mixture resembles coarse meal. Press firmly into prepared pie plate. Bake until golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
- Make the filling: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. With machine running, gradually add melted chocolate and the vanilla. Add eggs, one at a time, beating at medium speed for five minutes after each addition. Pour filling into cooled pie crust. Cover with plastic wrap, and transfer to the refrigerator to cool for at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
- Just before serving, top pie with whipped cream, and decorate with chocolate curls.

CHOCOLATE SILK PIE
Light yet rich, this magical dessert is like the grown-up version of the chocolate pudding pie of your youth. It requires a bit more work, but nothing terribly taxing. Just whip melted chocolate, butter and eggs into a mousse, and then pour it all into a chocolate cookie crust. Chill and enjoy. It's the perfect make-ahead dessert for a crowd.

CHOCOLATE PECAN PIE
A chocolate spin on the classic pecan pie for Thanksgiving. A little yogurt makes a flaky pie crust extra tender and makes the butter taste extra good!

Steps:
- Thoroughly mix the flour and salt in a large bowl. Cut the butter into chunks and add it to the bowl. Using two knives or a pastry blender, cut the butter into successively smaller pieces, scraping the bottom of the bowl and tossing the pieces to coat and separate them with flour as you work, until the largest pieces of butter are the size of peas and the rest bread-crumb size. (Do not let the butter melt or form a paste.) Mix the yogurt with the 1 tablespoon ice water and drizzle it over the flour mixture, tossing with a rubber spatula or a fork, folding and pressing the dough to distribute the moisture. If necessary, drizzle up to 1 more tablespoon water, until the dough is just moist enough to hold together when pressed. Dump the dough onto a sheet of plastic wrap and compress it into a flat disk, pressing in any loose pieces. Wrap in the plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or for up to 3 days.
- Remove the dough from the refrigerator and let it stand until it is pliable enough to roll without severe cracking. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a 14-inch circle about ⅛ inch thick, rotating and dusting the surface with flour to keep it from sticking. Brush the excess flour from the rolled-out circle, fold the circle into quarters, and transfer it to the pie pan. Unfold, easing the pastry into the pan without stretching it. Trim the overhang to about 1 inch. Turn the excess dough under and flute or crimp the edge. Refrigerate for at least 45 minutes before baking. (Reserve a few dough scraps for later patching if necessary.)
- Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat the oven to 350°F. Spread the nuts on a baking sheet and bake for 6 to 9 minutes, until fragrant and lightly colored. Set aside.
- Increase the oven temperature to 400°F and let preheat.
- Press a 12-inch square of foil, shiny side down, against the bottom and up the sides of the crust. Tent the edges of the foil over (not touching) the edges of the crust, like an awning, to prevent overbrowning. Prick the bottom of the crust all over with a fork, piercing right through the foil. Fill the foil-lined crust with dried beans or pie weights.
- Bake the crust for 20 minutes. Remove the foil liner and weights. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes more, until the bottom of the crust is golden brown.
- While the crust is baking, make the filling: Combine the chocolate, corn syrup, and butter in the top of a double boiler over barely simmering water. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Stir in the brown sugar, salt, rum, and vanilla. Add the eggs and stir until the mixture is well blended and hot to the touch. Set the double boiler aside, stirring the filling from time to time.
- When the crust is baked, remove it from the oven. (Leave the oven on.) If necessary, press bits of reserved dough into any holes or cracks in the crust. Pour the pecans into the crust and the hot filling over the nuts.
- Bake until the filling is puffed and cracked at the edges and brown in patches but still jiggles in the center when nudged, 10 to 12 minutes. A knife inserted in the pie will emerge very gooey. If the edges of the crust are browning too fast before the pie is done, cover with a 12-inch square of foil with a 7-inch circle cut out from its center. Cool the pie on a rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
