Ingredients
Brownie Filling
- 1 pouch brownie mix (plus ingredients called for on the package, typically eggs, oil, and water)
- 1 cup semi-sweet or sweet chocolate chips
Crust
- 1 regular-sized unbaked pie crust
Toppings (optional)
- Vanilla ice cream, for serving
- Chocolate sauce, for drizzling
Instructions
- Prepare the brownie batter: In a medium bowl, follow the package instructions to make the brownie batter by mixing the pouch contents with the required eggs, oil, and water. Once the batter is well combined, gently fold in the chocolate chips to add extra chocolate bursts throughout the pie.
- Fill the pie crust: Pour the prepared brownie batter into the unbaked pie crust, spreading it evenly to cover the bottom and sides without spilling over.
- Bake the pie: Place the pie on the middle rack of a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C). Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with a few moist crumbs but no raw batter. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly to set.
- Serve with toppings: Once slightly cooled, slice the brownie pie and serve warm. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream on each slice and drizzle with chocolate sauce for the perfect finishing touch of triple-layered chocolate delight.
Notes
- Ensure not to overbake the pie to maintain a fudgy, moist texture inside.
- You can use either a homemade or store-bought pie crust.
- For added texture, consider sprinkling chopped nuts on top before baking.
- Allow the pie to cool sufficiently before slicing to avoid breaking the crust.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
