BROWNIE PIE

Category: Pies - Miscellaneous

This is a recipe is the in consistency between a brownie and fudge. It's insanely rich with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

6 oz. semi-sweet chocolate pieces
1/2 C butter
1 C sugar
2 eggs
1/2 C sifted flour
1/4 t salt
1 C coarsely chopped pecans or walnuts
1/2 t vanilla

Melt chocolate pieces over hot water. Cream butter. Add sugar to butter gradually, cream well. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each. Sift the flour and the salt; beat again. Mix in the nuts, melted chocolate and vanilla. Pour into greased 9" pie plate. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes. Cool. Serve with whipped cream or ice cream if desired.

Note: I often make this in a square pan and cut up like brownies. Great to take to a party.
