Ingredients

  • 6 Organic Eggs separated ( you will be whipping the egg whites separately )
  • ¾ Cup Organic Sugar
  • ¾ Cup Butter Substitute or Organic Butter softened
  • 1 tsp Vanilla
  • 1 ½ Cups Pecans chopped fine
  • 1 ½ Cups Semisweet Chocolate Chips melted and cooled slightly ( I use the Enjoy Life brand of chocolate chips )

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350˚
  • In a bowl whisk the Egg whites until they form a white foam then slowly add in ¼ cup of sugar. Continue whisking until stiff peaks form.
  • In a separate bowl combine the Egg yolks and ½ cup of sugar and mix until smooth.
  • Stir in the Butter substitute or Organic Butter until well incorporated.
  • Add in the Vanilla, chopped Pecans and Chocolate and stir to combine.
  • Spoon in 1/3 of the Egg whites at a time folding to incorporate between each addition.
  • Pour the batter into a sprayed spring form pan and smooth to the edges.
  • Bake at 350˚ until a tooth pick inserted in the center comes out clean, 40-50 minutes. Let cool to room temperature before serving.
  • It is yummy as is but adding a scoop of coconut ice cream ( any flavor you like ) just puts it over the top! Enjoy.
