Equipment
- 1 9-inch pie plate
- 1 mixing bowl
- 1 whisk
- 1 rubber spatula
- 1 oven
Ingredients
- 1 pie crust pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup packed brown sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup chocolate chips Optional for extra texture.
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Place the pie crust into a 9-inch pie plate and crimp the edges. Pre-bake the crust for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the unsweetened cocoa powder, all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and salt until well combined.
- Add the melted butter, then whisk in the eggs and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
- If using, fold in the chocolate chips gently with a rubber spatula.
- Pour the brownie batter into the pre-baked pie crust and spread it evenly using the spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until the edges are set and the center is slightly soft. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out with a few moist crumbs, but not wet batter.
- Allow the pie to cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
