You get a triple dose of orange in this yummy fruit, nut and chocolate pie.
Heat oven to 375ºF. Make Orange Pastry--except cut scraps of rolled pastry with tiny star-shaped cookie cutter instead of fluting edge of pie crust. Sprinkle cutouts with sugar; press on pastry edge.
Beat sugar, butter, corn syrup, liqueur, salt and eggs in medium bowl with hand beater until smooth. Stir in pecans. Pour into pastry-lined pie plate. Cover edge with 2- to 3-inch strip of aluminum foil to prevent excessive browning; remove foil during last 15 minutes of baking.
Bake 40 to 50 minutes or until set. Cool 15 minutes. Melt chocolate chips and shortening over low heat, stirring constantly; drizzle over top of pie. Serve pie warm or cool with Orange Sauce.
Orange Pastry :
Mix flour, orange peel and salt in medium bowl. Cut in shortening, using pastry blender or crisscrossing 2 knives, until particles are size of small peas. Sprinkle with cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until all flour is moistened and pastry almost leaves side of bowl (1 to 2 teaspoons more water can be added if necessary).
Gather pastry into a ball. Shape into flattened round on lightly floured surface. Roll pastry, using floured rolling pin, into circle 2 inches larger than upside-down pie plate, 9x1 1/4 inches. Fold pastry into fourths; place in pie plate. Unfold and ease into plate, pressing firmly against bottom and side.
Trim overhanging edge of pastry 1 inch from rim of pie plate. Fold and roll pastry under, even with plate; flute as desired.
Orange Sauce:
Mix sugar and cornstarch in 1-quart saucepan. Stir in orange juice and liqueur. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and boils. Boil and stir 1 minute. Stir in orange peel. Serve warm.
