Nothing beats a warm, melty chocolate chip cookie straight from the oven… at least, that’s what we thought until we tried Tonya’s Chocolate Chip Pie. Tonya is a real baking enthusiast so when she told us about this creation, we knew it’d blow our minds. And it sure did. It’s everything you love about America’s favorite cookie, just thicker, sweeter, and even more amazing. We love it served warm with a big scoop of creamy vanilla ice cream melting on top, and truly, there is no other way to do it. Our tastebuds are so thankful for our dear friend and baking queen, and yours will be too, once they try Tonya’s Chocolate Chip Pie!
Ingredients
- 1 (9-inch) deep dish pie pastry, unbaked
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup pecans or walnuts, chopped
- vanilla ice cream, to taste, for serving
Directions
Step 1 –Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
Step 2 –Place the pie shell into a pie plate.
Step 3 –In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the eggs on high speed until they are foamy and pale in color.
Step 4 –Beat the flour, the granulated sugar, the brown sugar, and the vanilla into the egg mixture until it is combined.
Step 5 –Beat the butter into the sugar mixture until it is combined.
Step 6 –Stir the chocolate chips and the nuts into the filling mixture.
Step 7 –Spoon the filling into the pie shell.
Step 8 –Bake the pie until a knife inserted halfway between the edge and the center comes out clean, about 55 minutes-1 hour. Tent the pie with foil if the crust begins to brown too quickly.
Step 9 –Cool the pie on a wire rack.
Step 10 –Slice and serve warm with the ice cream.
