Description
Gooey Brownie Pie is the ultimate chocolate dessert, combining the rich texture of classic brownies with the elegance of a pie. Featuring a fudgy chocolate batter poured into a buttery pie crust and baked to perfection, this recipe yields a beautifully crackled top and a gooey, soft center. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a restaurant-quality treat at home.
Ingredients
- 1 pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the pie crust into a 9-inch pie pan and crimp edges as desired.
- In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter and sugar until smooth.
- Add eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, and salt.
- Gradually mix dry ingredients into the wet mixture until combined.
- Fold in chocolate chips.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pie crust and smooth the top.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly gooey.
- Cool for at least 20 minutes, then slice and serve warm.
Notes
For substitutions, use gluten-free flour for a GF option, or swap coconut oil for butter. You can prepare the pie ahead; cover and store at room temperature for 1 day or refrigerate for up to 4 days. Reheat slices in the microwave for best texture. If the pie is too gooey, bake longer and cover edges with foil to prevent over-browning. For a richer flavor, add espresso powder or chopped nuts.
