A rich and decadent dessert with a gooey center and crispy crust that will impress any chocolate lover.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pre-made pie crust
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish.

Notes
Monitor the baking time closely to achieve set edges with a soft, gooey center. You can add nuts for crunch or espresso powder for extra flavor.
