"I am asked to make this for every holiday! I put the chocolate chips in the pie shell prior to adding the mixture so that they don't melt. Prior to this, they seemed to make one big chocolate glob - ..." See moreadding them first took care of this problem. I also use a little less bourbon so it doesn't overpower the other flavors."
