Ingredients
- 115 grams unsalted butter
- 170 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 100 grams light brown sugar
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 95 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 piece pre-made pie crust
- 60 grams chopped nuts (optional, e.g., walnuts or pecans)
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish and lay the pre-made pie crust into the dish, pressing it gently against the sides. Trim any excess dough from the edges.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together, stirring frequently, until smooth. Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, light brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Step 4
Slowly pour the melted chocolate mixture into the sugar and egg mixture, whisking constantly until fully incorporated.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, being careful not to overmix. If using nuts, gently fold them in at this stage.
Step 6
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is set and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs. Be careful not to overbake, as the brownie filling should remain fudgy.
Step 8
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before slicing. Optionally, dust the top with powdered sugar for a decorative finish.
Step 9
Slice and serve on its own, or pair with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
