Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 stick butter, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a medium bowl, cream together the butter and sugar using an electric mixer until fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the eggs and vanilla extract. Mix well by hand to avoid overmixing.
  • Add the cocoa powder, salt, and flour. Stir by hand until fully combined.
  • Grease an 8-inch pie pan with butter or cooking spray and pour the mixture into the pan.
  • Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the center is set. The texture should be gooey, not fully firm.

Notes

  • Hand-mixing the batter helps maintain a gooey, fudgy texture. Using a mixer can result in a cakier texture.
  • If you prefer a less gooey texture, bake the pie a little longer.
  • This pie is delicious served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
