Ingredients
- 15 g Graham crackers
- 18 g Butter, unsalted
- 11 g Cocoa powder
- 20 g Sugar
- 15 g Eggs, whole, raw
- 8 g Flour, all-purpose

Method

- Melt the remaining butter and whisk in the sugar, egg, remaining cocoa powder, flour, vanilla and salt until smooth and glossy.
- Stir in the chopped pecans.
- Pour the filling into the chilled crust.
- Bake at 165°C (325°F) for 25-30 minutes until the edges are set but the center still looks slightly soft; it will firm up as it cools.
