Ingredients
- 6 Tbsp butter
- 3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a pie plate or a 9-inch springform pan to get ready for the magic.
- Melt Chocolate and Butter: In a heat-safe bowl, melt 6 tablespoons of butter and 2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips using a double boiler or microwave (at 50% power in 30-second intervals). Stir frequently, and once smooth, let it cool.
- Whip Eggs and Sugar: In an electric mixer, beat 3 eggs, 1 cup sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract on medium-high until the mixture turns fluffy and light (around 3 minutes).
- Combine Chocolate and Egg Mixture: Gradually mix the cooled chocolate mixture into the egg mixture until combined.
- Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Fold in the ½ cup flour, ¼ teaspoon baking powder, and ¼ teaspoon salt until just combined. Stir in the remaining 1 cup of chocolate chips for extra gooeyness.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 35-40 minutes until the center is puffed and the top cracks beautifully. The toothpick test should reveal moist crumbs.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the pie to cool completely before serving. Top it off with warm hot fudge for an extra layer of indulgence.
Notes
