Instructions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Stir together brown sugar, cocoa powder and salt. Add corn syrup, eggs, butter and vanilla; stir until well blended. Stir in pecans, walnuts and almonds. Pour into unbaked pie crust.

To prevent overbrowning, cover edge of crust with foil. Bake 30 minutes. Remove foil. Bake additional 25 to 30 minutes or until puffed across top.

Remove from oven to wire rack. Let cool completely. Garnish with whipped topping. Cover and store leftover pie in refrigerator.

Yield: 1 pie.
