Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs (at room temperature)
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 9-inch pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat Your Oven
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Lightly grease a 9-inch pie pan with non-stick spray or butter.
Step 2: Prepare Your Pie Crust
- Roll out your pie crust and press it evenly into the pie pan, smoothing the edges around the rim.
- Prick the base with a fork to prevent bubbling during baking.
Step 3: Prepare the Filling
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together melted butter, granulated sugar, and eggs until the mixture is glossy.
- Gradually sift in the unsweetened cocoa powder and flour, folding gently to avoid overmixing.
- Stir in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 4: Assemble and Bake
- Pour the brownie filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
- Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely before slicing to allow the filling to set.
Notes
- Crust Options: Use a graham cracker crust or Oreo cookie crust for added flavor.
- Chips Variety: Add white chocolate, peanut butter chips, or chopped nuts for texture and flavor diversity.
