Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- Optional toppings: Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for serving
Instructions
- Preheat Oven
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Mix Ingredients
- In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar until combined.
- Add in the eggs, one at a time, whisking after each addition.
- Stir in the unsweetened cocoa powder, flour, vanilla extract, and salt until everything is fully incorporated. The mixture will be thick, but that’s perfect!
- Bake
- Pour the batter into a greased 9-inch pie dish or baking pan.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (but not wet batter). The center should still be slightly gooey.
- Serve
- Let the pie cool slightly before slicing, as it will continue to set up as it cools.
- Serve warm with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for the perfect contrast to the rich, fudgy pie.
Notes
- The pie will firm up a bit more as it cools, so don’t worry if it’s a little soft right out of the oven.
- This pie is best served warm, so consider reheating individual slices in the microwave for about 15 seconds before serving.
- You can add a handful of chocolate chips to the batter before baking for extra fudginess!
