This weekend I made homemade dough again, the same recipe I've been using and it turned out great. It freezes well so Saturday was just for dough and then Sunday I made my first chocolate pecan pie. It's nice to break it out so I'm not doing dough and pies in one afternoon and now I still have 2 more dough balls in the freezer to use whenever. The chocolate pecan pie turned out well but slightly overcooked as it wasn't as gelatinous as I'd hope. Don't get me wrong, I'll probably eat the whole thing. Here are some pics of dough prep, me and my new favorite food and the final pie!

Crisco is now essential to my life!
Can you see what little counter space I'm working with?!
