Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup margarine, melted
  • 1 cup light corn syrup
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 4 eggs

First, preheat your oven to a moderate temperature of 325 degrees Fahrenheit (165 degrees Celsius).

Meanwhile, heat up a heavy saucepan over low heat and mix together the melted margarine, corn syrup, sugar, and cocoa. Stir constantly until the sugar has fully incorporated into the mixture.

Next, add a few drops of vanilla extract, a pinch of salt, and eggs to the saucepan. Stir until everything is fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.

Add half of the pecans to the saucepan and mix until they are evenly distributed. Then, pour the mixture into a pastry shell.
