For a deeper bourbon flavor, consider using a bourbon-infused extract in addition to the tablespoon of bourbon. To toast the pecans, spread them on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until fragrant and lightly browned. Let cool before chopping. If the pie crust edges begin to brown too quickly, cover them with foil or a pie shield during the last 20 minutes of baking. Feel free to experiment with different types of chocolate chips, such as dark chocolate or milk chocolate, to customize the flavor profile to your liking. If you don't have bourbon on hand, you can substitute with 1 tablespoon of rum or omit it altogether, though the bourbon adds a signature flavor.
