Directions

Preheat oven to 375° F.
In a large, microwave-safe bowl, microwave the evaporated milk, chocolate, and butter on low for 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until melted and combined, about 2-3 minutes total. (You could also use a double boiler or heavy saucepan on the stove to melt the ingredients, stirring constantly.)
Whisk sugar and flour into chocolate mixture, stirring to combine.
Add eggs, 1 at a time, whisking just until blended after each addition.
Whisk in vanilla and salt.
Stir in pecans.
Pour mixture into pie shell.
Bake at 375°F for 34 to 36 minutes or until set. After 25 to 30 minutes, cover the pie with aluminum foil to prevent over-browning the crust.
Cool 10 minutes. Drizzle the desired amount of caramel sauce over the pie and serve.
