Chocolate Chip Pie

Chocolate Chip Pie is the dessert you make when you just can’t decide between chocolate chip cookies and pie.

It’s unlike any other pie I’ve ever had—with a chewy, gooey, chocolatey center that’s completely swoon-worthy.

GOOEY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE PIE

Basically, this is a pie that’s filled with chocolate chip cookie dough instead of traditional pie filling—and it’s just as decadent as you think.

Because the filling is a lot thicker than your standard cookie, it gets crisp on top, chewy in the middle, and the bottom is all gooey, melty goodness. (If you’ve ever had a dessert that’s stuffed with warm chocolate chip cookie dough, it’s a little bit like that.)

My family loves this recipe and honestly, I can’t get enough of it either! It’s right up there with Peanut Butter Fluff Pie, Shoofly Pie, and Homemade Lemon Meringue Pie as one of our favorite pies.

EASY CHOCOLATE CHIP PIE RECIPE

This recipe is also called Nestle Toll House Chocolate Chip Pie because it originated with the famous chocolate chip company. While there are a number of recipes for Chocolate Chip Pie out there, I make a version that’s pretty close to the one shared by Nestle Toll House, with the exception that I omit the nuts.

What’s fun about this recipe is that there’s a lot of room to make changes and customize your pie to your family’s tastes and preferences. Read on for some ideas!

INGREDIENTS

See recipe card below this post for ingredient quantities and full instructions.

For this delicious chocolate chip cookie pie, you’ll need:

• Deep dish pie crust – Frozen or fresh, just make sure you use the pastry dough kind and not graham cracker or chocolate, which would be a bit too sweet paired with this filling.
• Eggs
• All-purpose flour
• Granulated sugar
• Brown sugar – Use light brown sugar or dark—whatever you have on hand is fine!
• Butter – The butter needs to be soft, so place it on the countertop about an hour before you plan on starting the recipe. I recommend using unsalted butter.
• Chocolate chips – The recipe calls for semi-sweet, but feel free to use milk chocolate chips for a creamier flavor.
• Whipped cream or ice cream – A scoop of vanilla ice cream melting onto a warm piece of gooey Chocolate Chip Pie is what dreams are made of.

VARIATIONS

As mentioned above, there’s a lot of room for variation here.

Add chopped walnuts or pecans if you’re a fan, or swap half the chocolate chips for M&Ms and turn your Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie into M&M Cookie Pie! Sprinkles can add some color, too.

Chopped Heath Bar in here would be incredible, or drizzle caramel and chocolate sauce over the scoop of ice cream when you’re serving the pie.

HOW TO MAKE CHOCOLATE CHIP PIE

This recipe for Chocolate Chip Pie is ridiculously easy. Here’s what you do:

STEP 1: PREPARE

Preheat the oven to 325ºF.

STEP 2: MAKE THE FILLING

Use a hand mixer to beat the eggs in a large mixing bowl until they’re foamy. Add the flour and both sugars, and beat again until combined. Beat in the butter, then fold in the chocolate chips. Spoon the batter into the pie shell, making sure it’s evenly distributed.

STEP THREE: BAKE THE PIE

Bake for about an hour, or until a knife inserted between the edge and center comes out clean. Cool the pie on a wire rack, then serve warm with a scoop of ice cream or dollop of whipped cream.

HOW TO STORE CHOCOLATE CHIP PIE

You don’t need to refrigerate this chocolate chip cookie pie recipe. Use plastic wrap and keep it on the countertop for 4–5 days (if it lasts that long!).

To freeze, let the pie cool completely after baking. Then wrap it in a layer of plastic wrap and a layer of foil. Pop it in the freezer; when you’re ready to eat it, thaw the pie in the fridge overnight. Take off the wrapping and warm it in the oven at 325ºF until it’s heated through.
