Bake just until the center jiggles ever so slightly when you give the pie a gentle shake. Over-baking can lead to a firmer filling, so it&#8217;s better to err on the side of under-baking slightly to get that classic gooey texture.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1732249259538\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How Do I Make Sure My Crust Doesn&#8217;t Burn?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">This is a common issue with pies that bake for a longer time. Cover the crust edges with foil or a pie shield halfway through baking to protect them. If you\u2019re after an even crispier crust, brush the edges with egg wash before baking.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1732249310381\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What Can I Do With Leftover Pecan And Chocolate Pie?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Just like our <a href=\"https:\/\/cafedelites.com\/chocolate-pumpkin-cheesecake\/\">Chocolate Pumpkin Cheesecake<\/a>, leftover pie is a treat! Store any remaining slices covered in the refrigerator, where it will stay fresh for up to four days. This pie is also wonderful cold; the flavors become richer as it sits.
