- 3 eggs
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
- 2/3 cup dark corn syrup
- 1 1/2 cup walnut pieces
- 1 tsp sea salt more to taste if desired
Instructions

- Add the flour, eggs and corn syrup. Mix well. Mix in the walnut pieces.
- Pour the mixture into the pie shell, on top of the chocolate chips, and bake for 45 mins to an hour.
- The filling will be puffed up and set at the sides, but still slightly jiggly in the center.
