Brownie Pie
Report
Brownie pie is known in some parts as Tar Heel pie. Whatever you care to call the recipe, it's essentially a rich, gooey, chocolate fudge pie made from scratch. Store-bought just can't compete.

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Microwave 2/3 cup of the chocolate chips and the butter in a bowl, stirring every 30 seconds or so, until melted, 60 to 90 seconds total.
- Whisk in the oil and cocoa until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the sugar, eggs, vanilla, and salt until smooth and thick.
- Whisk the chocolate mixture into the sugar mixture just until incorporated.
- Stir in the flour and remaining 1/3 cup of chocolate chips until just combined.
- Scatter the pecans over the pie crust.
- Pour the chocolate fudge batter over the top, using a spatula to smooth the top. Bake the pie until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a thin coating of batter attached, 30 to 35 minutes.
- Let the pie cool on wire rack until barely warm, about 1 1/2 hours. Slice and serve. (The pie is best warm from the oven but it can be reheated, uncovered, in a 300°F (150°C) oven until warm throughout, 10 to 15 minutes.)
Notes
- Don't prepare the filling in advance--The brownie filling will thicken as it sits, so make it just before adding it to the pie crust.
- Storage--Store leftover pie in the refrigerator, covered with plastic, for up to 5 days.
