Ingredients
- 2 oz unsweetened chocolate
- 6 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 9-inch prepared crust pie crust
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the unsweetened chocolate and butter over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Step 3
Stir in the granulated sugar until well combined with the chocolate mixture.
Step 4
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 5
Sift in the all-purpose flour and add a pinch of salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined—do not overmix.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared 9-inch pie crust, smoothing out the top with a spatula.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is set and slightly cracked, but the center still jiggles slightly when shaken.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let the pie cool on a wire rack for at least 1 hour. The filling will continue to set as it cools.
Step 9
Serve slices of the fudge pie on their own or top with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
