Step 1: Prepare the Pie Crust
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare the Crust: If using a store-bought pie crust, fit it into a 9-inch pie dish, crimp the edges, and set aside. If you prefer homemade, roll out your favorite pie dough and press it into the dish. Set aside.
Step 2: Make the Brownie Filling
- Melt Butter: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Remove from heat and stir in the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and cocoa powder until well combined.
- Add Eggs and Vanilla: Whisk in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
- Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in the flour and salt until the batter is smooth and fully combined. Fold in the chocolate chips for an extra burst of chocolatey goodness.
Step 3: Assemble and Bake
- Pour Batter into Crust: Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
- Bake: Bake the pie for 35-40 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center still looks slightly soft. The pie will continue to set as it cools.
- Cool: Allow the pie to cool completely on a wire rack. For an even fudgier texture, chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.
Step 4: Serve
- Serve Warm or Chilled: Slice and serve the pie warm for a gooey, molten center, or chilled for a firmer, fudgy texture.
- Top with Ice Cream: For an extra indulgent treat, serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and drizzle with chocolate or caramel sauce. A dusting of powdered sugar also adds a lovely finishing touch.
Tips for Perfect Fudgy Chocolate Brownie Pie
- Don’t Overbake: The key to a fudgy texture is not overbaking the pie. Look for set edges and a slightly soft center—it will firm up as it cools.
- Add-ins: For extra texture, fold in chopped nuts, like pecans or walnuts, or mix in white chocolate chips.
- Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week. The pie can also be frozen for up to 2 months. Thaw before serving.
