Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup (95g) all-purpose flour (or almond/coconut flour for gluten-free)
  • 1 cup (175g) semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prep Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish with butter or non-stick spray to ensure even baking and easy removal.
  2. Melt the Chocolate and Butter: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semisweet chocolate chips and butter. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the mixture is smooth and fully melted to form the rich pie filling base.
  3. Mix the Batter: In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth. Gradually fold in the melted chocolate and butter mixture, then sift in the flour to create a glossy, thick batter with a velvety texture.
  4. Pour and Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pie dish and smooth the top. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center still jiggles slightly to maintain a gooey, molten core.
  5. Cool and Serve: Allow the pie to cool for at least 15 minutes to firm up. Serve warm to enjoy the fudgy texture, or at room temperature or chilled with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Use quality semisweet chocolate chips for deeper flavor.
  • Do not overbake; keep the center slightly wobbly for perfect fudge texture.
  • Ensure eggs and butter are at room temperature for even mixing.
  • For clean slices, chill the pie in the refrigerator for an hour before cutting.
  • A pinch of flaky sea salt on top before serving enhances the chocolate richness.
