Hot Fudge Pie is a rich and decadent dessert that combines the gooey, chocolatey goodness of a brownie with the warm, comforting texture of pie. It’s incredibly easy to make and perfect for chocolate lovers. Here’s how you can make it:

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • Optional: 1 cup chopped nuts (such as walnuts or pecans) or chocolate chips for added texture

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish or baking dish.
  2. Prepare the Batter:
    • In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and granulated sugar. Mix until smooth.
    • Stir in the cocoa powder, salt, and vanilla extract.
    • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
    • Gently fold in the flour until just combined. If you’re using nuts or chocolate chips, fold them in now.
  3. Pour and Bake:
    • Pour the batter into the prepared pie dish and spread it evenly.
    • Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is still slightly soft. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with a few moist crumbs.
  4. Cool and Serve:
    • Allow the pie to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. It’s delicious served warm or at room temperature.
    • Optionally, top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra treat.

Tips:

  • For a gooey center, be careful not to overbake the pie. The center should remain slightly undercooked.
  • If you like a more intense chocolate flavor, you can use dark cocoa powder or add a bit of espresso powder.
  • The pie can be made ahead of time and stored at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerated for up to a week.

Hot Fudge Pie is a delightful, easy-to-make dessert that’s perfect for satisfying your chocolate cravings. It’s rich, fudgy, and sure to be a hit with family and friends!
