Amma’s Recipes

Amma’s Cookie Pie

Ingredients

2 eggs

½ cup firmly packed brown sugar

½ cup sugar

½ cup unbleached flour

½ pound (2 sticks) butter, melted and cooled

1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts

1 unbaked 9-inch piecrust (prepared or homemade)*

Vanilla ice cream (optional)

*In Amma’s kitchen, the crust is homemade. If you are using a frozen piecrust, use a deep-dish style and thaw it completely. Place the pie on a cookie sheet and bake 10 minutes longer.

Directions

1.Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.

2.In a bowl, beat the eggs until they foam. Add the sugars and flour, and beat again until mixed. Gently blend in the butter. Stir in the chips and nuts. Spoon the mixture into the pie shell.

3.Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until the top is lightly browned. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean. (There may be melted chocolate on the knife; as long as there is no batter, the pie is done.)

4.Serve warm or cooled, with vanilla ice cream if desired.
