Instructions

Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). If using a store-bought pie crust, ensure it’s already in a 9-inch pie dish.
Prepare the wet ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Combine the dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
Mix wet and dry ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until fully incorporated. The batter should be thick but smooth.
Add the chocolate chips: Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Pour into the crust: Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pie crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake: Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still soft and gooey. Check with a toothpick—if it comes out with a few moist crumbs, it’s ready. If it’s clean, it may be overbaked.
Cool and serve: Allow the pie to cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. Serve warm with a scoop of ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
