Gooey Brownie Pie

Gooey Brownie Pie

Yield: 8–10 servings

A fudgy chocolate brownie with a crackly top, baked in a pie pan and finished with hot fudge—an easy treat for anyone who loves chocolate.

Ingredients

  • 6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter
  • 3 1/4 cups (20 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
  • 3 extra-large eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Hot fudge or chocolate sauce, for serving

Steps

  1. Melt the butter and chocolate together until smooth, then cool briefly so the mixture won’t cook the eggs when combined.
  2. In another bowl, beat the eggs, sugar, and vanilla about 3 minutes until very pale and airy.
  3. Stream in the cooled chocolate and mix until blended.
  4. Gently fold in the flour, baking powder, and salt just until incorporated, then stir in the remaining chocolate chips.
  5. Pour into a prepared springform pan. A pie plate or cake pan works too, but you’ll only need about 3/4 of the batter—the mixture rises, and tall springform sides help contain it.
  6. Bake at 350°F for 40–45 minutes until puffed and a tester shows moist crumbs. Cool before slicing.
  7. Serve with chocolate sauce or hot fudge on top.
