Equipment
- Large mixing bowl
- Whisk or spatula
- Rubber spatula
- 9-inch pie dish
- Oven mitts
Ingredients
- 1 pre-made deep-dish pie crust thawed if frozen
- 1 box family-size brownie mix for a 9x13 pan
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil or melted butter
- 1/4 cup water or strong hot coffee
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Thaw the pie shell for about 10 minutes if it's frozen.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, eggs, oil, water (or coffee), and vanilla extract.
- Stir until smooth and combined, avoiding overmixing.
- Fold in the chocolate chips gently.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pie crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven, starting to check for doneness around 40 minutes.
- The pie is done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Let it cool completely before slicing for the best results.
Notes
For extra richness, replace the water with strong coffee. You can add a handful of nuts or different chocolate varieties for added flavor. If you want a crustless version, simply grease your pie plate and pour the batter directly in the dish. Leftover pie can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze individual slices.
