Gooey Brownie Pie

The Gooey Brownie Pie is an indulgent, rich dessert that combines the best of brownies and pie. With a soft, gooey center and a deliciously chocolatey exterior, this pie is sure to satisfy any chocolate lover’s cravings.

Ingredients:

  • 6 Tbsp butter
  • 3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided

Directions:

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a pie dish or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Melt the Butter and Chocolate:
    In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and 2 cups of chocolate chips over low heat. Stir continuously until smooth and fully melted.
  3. Cool the Mixture:
    Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the chocolate-butter mixture cool slightly.
  4. Add the Remaining Chocolate Chips:
    Stir in the remaining 1 cup of chocolate chips into the mixture, allowing them to melt slightly from the residual heat.
  5. Pour and Bake:
    Pour the chocolate mixture into the prepared pie dish, spreading it evenly.
  6. Bake:
    Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is still slightly gooey.
  7. Cool Before Serving:
    Let the pie cool completely before slicing and serving. The center will set as it cools, creating that perfect gooey texture.
