Description
My go-to dessert for so many occasions; great for new moms, potlucks, or just a Netflix binge. The best part? 10 times easier than chocolate chip cookies – if you can imagine that!
Ingredients
- 1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust, homemade or store-bought.
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 C flour
- 1/2 C white granulated sugar
- 1/2 C packed brown sugar
- 3/4 C real butter, softened (1 1/2 sticks)
- 1 C chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark works best, you might find milk too sweet)
- 1 C chopped pecans (you are welcome to make it without nuts)
- Vanilla ice cream, or sweetened whipped cream for serving (a must! I prefer ice cream)
- Optional: chocolate sauce (honestly, doesn’t really need chocolate sauce, but it looks pretty!)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325° F.
- Beat eggs in large mixer bowl on high speed until foamy. Beat in flour, granulated sugar and brown sugar. Beat in butter. Stir in morsels and nuts. Spoon into pie shell.
- Bake for 55 to 60 minutes or until knife inserted halfway between edge and center comes out clean. Cool on wire rack or serve slightly warmed. Serve with ice cream or whipped cream.
Notes
- *There have been several comments about pies turning out runny. First and foremost, follow the instructions, completely (no margarine or anything from a tub!) I’ve made a million of these and never had that happen so I honestly have no idea. The recipe is correct as written, it comes straight from Nestle! The only thing I can think of is that altitude might be a factor. One reader suggested adding 2 Tbs of flour if you’re at a high altitude. If anyone finds that solves their problem, let me know!
