Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie
Description
This dessert uses a batter of eggs, all-purpose flour, granulated and brown sugar, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract, and melted, cooled butter to create a spiced cookie-like pie filling. The chocolate chips added enhance the classic cookie character with bursts of rich chocolate. The batter is poured into an unbaked 9-inch pie shell and baked at a moderate temperature until the center is set and no longer jiggly, ensuring a soft but firm filling.
The pumpkin adds moisture and a mild earthiness, while the spice blend highlights warm autumnal notes. The pie shell provides a crisp contrast to the tender interior. Serving the pie warm with whipped cream or ice cream adds a creamy, cool element that complements the pie’s spiced richness.
Using cooled melted butter and an electric mixer to fully incorporate ingredients are key steps for the proper texture and consistency. Measuring carefully maintains the balance between cake-like and cookie-like textures. Increasing pumpkin quantity results in a more cake-like pumpkin-centered filling.
Ingredients
- 2 egg large
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
- 1 cup butter melted and cooled to room temperature
- 1/3 cup pumpkin pureed
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice + 1 teaspoon
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 pie shell unbaked
- Whipped Cream or ice cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat eggs until foamy. Beat in flour, sugar and brown sugar until well blended. Add in vanilla extract, pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice and mix until combined. Blend in melted butter with mixer on low speed, then gradually increase to high and beat until mixture is combined and you have a batter. Toss chocolate chips with a sprinkling of flour and fold into batter.
- Pour into an unbaked 9-inch pie shell. Bake for 55 minutes, or until center is no longer jiggly.
- Serve warm with ice cream of whipped cream.
Notes
- Ensure melted butter is fully cooled before mixing to avoid affecting batter texture.
- Use an electric mixer to thoroughly blend ingredients to form the correct batter consistency.
- Adjust pumpkin amount carefully; adding more will create a softer, more cake-like interior.
