This Gooey Brownie Pie recipe combines the rich, fudgy texture of a classic brownie with the convenient pie form. Featuring a melted chocolate base mixed with eggs, sugar, and flour, this decadent dessert is baked to perfection with a soft, gooey center and chocolate chips folded throughout for added bursts of flavor.

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 3 cups semisweet chocolate chips (divided: 2 cups for melting, 1 cup for folding in)
  • 3 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a pie plate or a 9-inch springform pan thoroughly and set it aside to prevent sticking.
  2. Melt Butter and Chocolate: In a heat-safe bowl, melt the butter together with 2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips. Use a double boiler method or microwave at 50% power in 30-second bursts, stirring frequently until the mixture is smooth and fully combined. Allow this to cool slightly before using.
  3. Beat Eggs and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, beat the 3 eggs, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract on medium-high speed for about 3 minutes. This process aerates the mixture, making it pale and fluffy, which contributes to the pie’s texture.
  4. Combine Chocolate Mixture: Slowly add the cooled melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, stirring gently until fully incorporated and smooth.
  5. Add Dry Ingredients: Carefully fold in the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt just until combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the pie tender.
  6. Fold in Remaining Chocolate Chips: Add the remaining 1 cup of semisweet chocolate chips to the batter, folding them in evenly for bursts of chocolate in every bite.
  7. Pour Batter and Bake: Transfer the batter into the prepared pan and smooth out the top with a spatula. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until the edges are set, and the center is puffed but still soft and gooey.
  8. Cool and Serve: Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool completely in the pan before slicing to help it set properly. Serve plain or with warm hot fudge sauce for extra indulgence.

Notes

  • Ensure eggs are at room temperature to achieve a better rise and texture.
  • Do not overbake; the center should remain soft for that gooey brownie effect.
  • Use a springform pan for easier removal and cleaner slices.
  • For a gluten-free version, substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free blend.
  • Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an irresistible dessert.
