Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare Your Ingredients: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease your pie pan thoroughly. Melt the butter and semisweet chocolate chips together in a heatproof bowl over simmering water until smooth, stirring frequently to combine.
- Mix the Batter: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract together until creamy and well combined. Gradually incorporate the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the egg mixture, stirring until uniform.
- Add Dry Ingredients: Sift the cocoa powder, all-purpose flour, and salt into the wet ingredients. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the batter, being careful not to overmix, until no lumps remain.
- Bake the Pie: Pour the batter evenly into the greased pie pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the edges are set and slightly pulling away from the pan but the center remains soft and gooey.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the Gooey Brownie Pie to cool slightly, at least 20 minutes, before slicing. This resting time helps the fudgy texture to set perfectly while keeping the center silky and molten.
Notes
- Use high-quality chocolate for a richer flavor.
- Do not overbake to maintain the gooey center.
- Use room temperature eggs for better mixing and texture.
- Grease the pan well to prevent sticking.
- Let the pie rest at least 20 minutes before slicing for better sliceability.
