Ingredients
For the Crust:
- 1 pre-made pie crust (or homemade, 9-inch)
For the Filling:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
For Garnish (Optional):
- Whipped cream
- Vanilla ice cream
- Chocolate drizzle
Directions
1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). If not already done, place the pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish, pressing it evenly along the bottom and up the sides.
2. Prepare the Filling:
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until creamy and well blended.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
3. Incorporate Dry Ingredients:
- Gradually add the flour and salt, stirring until fully combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips and nuts (if using) to evenly distribute them throughout the batter.
4. Fill the Pie Crust:
Pour the batter into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly. Smooth the top with a spatula for a clean finish.
5. Bake the Pie:
Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 50–60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and slightly firm to the touch. The center should feel soft but not liquid; it will set as it cools.
6. Cool and Serve:
Allow the pie to cool for at least 20 minutes before slicing to prevent it from falling apart. Serve warm for the ultimate gooey experience, topped with whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce.
Tips for Success
- Soften Butter Properly: Let the butter sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before use for easy mixing.
- Check for Doneness: The pie should have a slightly soft center but not appear raw. A toothpick inserted 1 inch from the edge should come out clean.
- Make It Your Own: Substitute white chocolate chips or butterscotch chips for a fun twist!
Serving Suggestions
Pair this decadent pie with:
- A steaming cup of coffee or espresso for a cozy dessert experience.
- Fresh berries on the side for a refreshing contrast.
