Instructions
Crust
In a food processor, combine the flour, salt and sugar. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal, about 10 seconds. Add the ice water in a slow stream, pulsing the mixture no more than 30 seconds, until it begins to form a ball.
Remove the dough from the processor and wrap in plastic wrap and flatten with the palm of your hand. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. When ready to use, roll out on a floured surface using a floured rolling pin to roll into an 11-inch pie crust. Lay it in a 10-inch pie pan, and crimp the edges. Keep in the refrigerator until ready to fill. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Filling
In a large bowl, whisk together the corn syrup, sugar, salt, eggs, vanilla, and honey, mixing well. Stir in the melted butter. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust. Top with pecans and chocolate chips.
Bake the pie, rotating halfway through cooking, for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the crust is brown and the pie filling is bubbly. Let cool slightly and serve pie warm with vanilla ice cream or sweetened whipped cream.
Notes
*You may use any honey you have on hand if you do not have Tupelo Honey.
