Gooey Brownie Pie Recipe

by

Gooey Brownie Pie is the ultimate dessert for chocolate lovers—a rich, fudgy brownie baked inside a buttery pie crust, with a soft, molten center that melts in your mouth. Perfect for serving warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of chocolate sauce, this pie is a decadent showstopper for any occasion. Whether it’s for a dinner party or a cozy night in, this indulgent treat will have everyone coming back for seconds.

Ingredients:

  • 1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust (homemade or store-bought)

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter

  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar

  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed

  • 4 large eggs, room temperature

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

  • ½ tsp salt

  • 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place your unbaked pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and set aside.

  2. Melt Butter & Chocolate: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the chocolate chips until smooth and fully melted. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla until smooth and slightly thickened.

  4. Combine: Slowly stir in the melted chocolate mixture.

  5. Add Dry Ingredients: Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gently fold until just combined—do not overmix.

  6. Add Nuts (Optional): If using, fold in the chopped walnuts or pecans.

  7. Fill & Bake: Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pie crust and spread evenly. Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly soft.

  8. Cool & Serve: Let the pie cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream for extra indulgence.

Tip: For an extra gooey center, slightly underbake and allow the pie to rest before slicing so it holds together but stays soft inside.

If you want, I can also give you a salted caramel drizzle version that makes this pie even more irresistible.
