We took the original pecan pie recipe and took out half of the sugar and replaced it with chocolate chips, for one chocolate pecan pie this results in 1/2 cup brown sugar and 1/2 cup chocolate chips. When we added the liquor we replaced the 1 teaspoon vanilla extract with 1 tablespoon bourbon.

I did find a good recipe for Jell-O shots and proceeded to make several batches of these over the next few days. Monique made her key lime pie and a batch of rice crispy treats too. I will post recipes of the pie and Jell-O shots too.

The Scottish Empire Biscuits traditionally have maraschino cherries on top (either halved or quartered, and usually made a bit bigger), however, I didn’t have any maraschino cherries, and quite frankly, I don’t like it too much, as the cherry liquid, even after drying them, always gets into the icing.
