It's Derby Day and time for all the best Kentucky has to offer. From mint juleps to Kentucky hot browns, and finally the Kentucky Derby pie; Kentucky favorites won't disappoint. 

Why is this pie so good? It's a decadent treat that cuts the bourbon with the perfect amount of sweetness. It's not the Derby without the bourbon. When in Rome or Kentucky-

My sister-in-love gave me this recipe. Every holiday, she's in charge of the pies. Kentucky Derby pie is a family favorite. There are always two pies; one with a semi-sweet chocolate chip and the other with butterscotch chips. For Derby Day, it's time to try dark chocolate chips. 

The recipe:

Two eggs slightly beaten
One cup of sugar
1/4 cup of flour
1/2 cup melted butter; cooled
One cup of dark chocolate chips
One tsp vanilla
One cup of chopped pecans
One deep dish pie crust

Mix the dry ingredients. Mix the wet ingredients. Combine. Add to frozen pie crust. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until set. Let it cool. Top with whipped cream and a sprig of mint. Keep the theme going!
