2 teaspoons instant coffee granules
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
3 eggs
3/4 cup dark corn syrup
1/3 cup sugar

1-1/2 cups pecan halves
1 unbaked 9-inch piecrust

Combine eggs, corn syrup, sugar, and vanilla and whisk to blend. Stir in melted chocolate mixture and pecans. 4. Pour filling into piecrust. Bake for 50 minutes, or until a knife inserted into center comes out clean. Cool on rack.
