CHOCOLATE PECAN LATTICE TART - PAMPERED CHEF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Combine chocolate chips and butter in microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 20-40 seconds until melted and smooth. Stir after each 20 second interval.
• Add chopped pecans, brown sugar, egg, corn syrup, and vanilla to the melted chocolate. Set aside.
• Unroll one pie crust onto a lightly floured baking stone and roll to a 13 inch circle.
• Unroll second pie crust. Gently fold in half and cut into 12 strips (approximately 3/4 inch wide).
• Spoon chocolate/pecan mixture onto the center of the circular dough and spread in an even 10 inch circle, leaving about 2-3 inches of dough on the outside.
• Carefully twist six of the pie crust strips and place over filling in horizontal rows. Twist remaining strips and place vertically, creating a lattice effect.
• Firmly press the ends of the strips onto the edge of the crust.
• Fold edge of crust over the ends of the strips, pinching the edges to seal.
• Bake 28-30 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
• Remove from oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes.

• Brush dough lightly with a portion of the egg white mixture.
• Grate the remaining chocolate chips over dough. Sprinkle with remaining white chocolate and almond mixture; roll lightly with rolling pin.
• Starting at narrow edge, roll dough up tightly; pinch edge to seal. Slice roll into four equal portions; place seam side down in mini pan. Make a deep cut down the length of each loaf without cutting through ends. Brush loaves with remaining egg white mixture.
