Welcome to My Kitchen! This Hot Fudge Pie recipe delivers a rich, decadent chocolate flavor and a texture like a warm, gooey brownie. It is surprisingly easy to make and perfect served warm with ice cream for any special occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (9 inch) unbaked pie crust
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place the unbaked pie crust on a baking sheet.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, cocoa powder, and salt until combined.
  3. Pour the melted butter into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. The mixture will look crumbly.
  4. In a separate small bowl, whisk the eggs, vanilla extract, and milk together.
  5. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until you have a smooth batter. Do not overmix.
  6. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  7. Pour the batter into the unbaked pie crust.
  8. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes. The edges should look set, but the center will still be soft and fudgy. This pie is meant to be gooey.
  9. Let the pie cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the center to set slightly.
  10. Serve the pie warm with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for the ultimate indulgence.

Notes

  • For the best brownie-like texture, do not overbake. The center should remain soft when you remove it from the oven.
  • You can use a pre-made graham cracker crust if you prefer a different base, but an unbaked pastry crust works well here.
  • This pie tastes best when eaten warm, shortly after cooling for 30 minutes.
