Ingredients

• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup Brown sugar, packed
• 2 pieces Large eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Optional: Chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts or pecans)
• 0 Cooking spray or butter (for greasing the pie dish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish with cooking spray or butter and set aside.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter (about 30 seconds to 1 minute). Add the semi-sweet chocolate chips to the hot butter and stir until completely smooth and melted. Let the mixture cool slightly.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and eggs until well combined and slightly frothy. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

Gradually pour the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the sugar and egg mixture, stirring constantly to combine.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until no streaks of flour are visible. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

If using nuts, gently fold them into the batter.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared pie dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the center is just set and a toothpick inserted near the edge comes out with a few moist crumbs. Do not overbake; the center should remain slightly gooey for that 'impossible pie' texture.

Step 9

Remove the brownie pie from the oven and let it cool completely in the pie dish. Once cool, slice into wedges and serve. Optional: Top with whipped cream, ice cream, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
