Gooey Brownie Pie – Full Recipe

1. Preheat the oven and prepare the pan:

• Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F).

• Grease a 9-inch (approx. 23 cm) springform cake pan or pie dish.

2. Melt the chocolate and butter:

• In a heatproof bowl, melt 2 cups chocolate and butter using a double boiler or microwave (at 50% power in 30-second intervals).

• Once the mixture is completely smooth, set aside to cool.

3. Prepare the egg mixture:

• Using an electric mixer, beat the eggs, sugar, and vanilla on medium-high speed for about 3 minutes. The mixture should be light in color and fluffy.

4. Add the chocolate:

• Add the cooled chocolate-butter mixture to the egg mixture and stir.

5. Add the dry ingredients:

• Sift the flour, baking powder, and salt into the mixture and stir just until combined.

• Add the reserved 1 cup of chocolate chunks and gently fold in with a spatula.

6. Baking:

• Pour the batter into the prepared pan.

• Bake in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes. The center should be puffed and the top cracked, but the inside will remain slightly moist.

7. Cooling and serving:

• Remove from the oven and let cool completely.

• Drizzle warm fudge or chocolate sauce over the top before serving.
