So my two favorite pies are coconut and pecan. Either one is what I like to pick for Thanksgiving. I have seen variations of pecan with chocolate before, but never with pretzel pieces too. I decided I had to give this chocolate pretzel pecan pie a try. It was delish! I love the whole sweet and salty combo. If you love pecan pie, this variation is definitely worth it.
