Gooey Brownie Pie

Overview

Gooey Brownie Pie – a gooey chocolate brownie with a crackly top baked into a pie and topped with hot fudge. A delicious and easy dessert for any chocolate lover.  

▢ 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 kosher salt

1. Start by melting the butter and chocolate together until it is nice and smooth.  Cool this slightly so it doesn’t scramble the eggs when you mix it all together. 
2. Separately beat the eggs, sugar and vanilla for about 3 minutes until it is super light and fluffy.  
3. Pour the cooled chocolate in and mix until it is combined. 
4. Fold in the flour, baking powder and salt until it is just combined.  Then add in the rest of the chocolate.
5. Pour into a prepared spring form pan to bake.  You can use a pie plate or cake pan if you don’t have one, but you will only use about 3/4 of the batter.  This does rise in the oven, and the sides of a spring form pan keep it in place. 
6. Once it has puffed up and a tester comes out clean it is done.  Let it cool before slicing.  
7. To serve top with chocolate sauce.
