- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour (heat-treated)
- 2 tablespoons milk

Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Mix until it resembles wet sand. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Bake the crust for 8-10 minutes. Let it cool completely.

- Sprinkle the remaining 1⁄2 cup of chocolate chips on top of the pie for a decorative finish.
- Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours to set.
- Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy this indulgent, no-bake treat that tastes just like cookie dough in pie form.
