All Ingredients Needed

Good news! This recipe uses all the standard ingredients for chocolate chip cookies. They’re super simple! All you need is a pie crust to make the magic happen. Measurements for each ingredient can be found in the recipe card below.

  • Refrigerated Pie Crust: To simplify the process, I like using a premade, refrigerated pie crust. Homemade works great too! You can find my tried and true pie crust recipe here.
  • Butter: Adds moisture and a rich flavor.
  • Sugar: I use a mix of granulated and brown sugar here for a deeper sweetness.
  • Pure Vanilla Extract: Everything is better with vanilla! This will help boost the overall flavor of your chocolate chip cookie pie.
  • Eggs: Used to bind everything together and help the pie take shape.
  • All-Purpose Flour: Gives the cookie filling structure.
  • Salt: You only need a pinch to keep your pie from tasting bland.
  • Chocolate Chips: I used semi-sweet here, but feel free to switch this up with different types of chocolate chips. Dark or white chocolate chips are both tasty variations!

How to Make Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie

Making chocolate chip cookie pie is just as easy, if not easier, than throwing together a batch of your favorite chocolate chip cookies! Top off a slice with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce. One bite and you’ll be in love!

  1. Preheat Oven: First, preheat your oven to 350° Fahrenheit.
  2. Prep Pie Crust: Prepare the pie crust by placing it in an 8 or 9-inch pie dish. Crimp the edges and set aside while you prepare the filling.
  3. Butter Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy.
  4. Add Wet Ingredients: Next, add the vanilla and eggs and mix just until combined.
  5. Mix In Remaining Ingredients: Add the flour and salt and mix just until the wet and dry ingredients are incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  6. Add to Pie Crust: Spoon the filling into the unbaked pie shell. Sprinkle a few additional chocolate chips on top if you would like.
  7. Bake: Bake for about 50 minutes or until a knife inserted about halfway from the center of pie comes out clean.
  8. Cool: Allow the pie to cool for at least about an hour before serving.
  9. Enjoy: Serve warm or at room temperature and always with ice cream on top!

Tips and Tricks for Making Chocolate Chip Pie

This chocolate chip cookie pie recipe is easy and comes together quickly! I have some tips to share that will make your pie a total success.

  • Avoid Melting the Butter: The butter should be slightly soft, not melted.
  • Sticky Batter: The batter should appear stickier than regular cookie dough. It should not be runny or too dry.
  • Pan Size Matters: Only use an 8-9 inch pie dish. Also, avoid deep dish pans. The batter will not fill anything bigger or deeper.
  • Chocolate Chips: Feel free to use milk chocolate chips if you prefer. Or a combination of milk and semi-sweet!
  • Pie Crust: Homemade or store-bought pie crust both work great. I just like the convenience of store-bought.
  • Allow Pie to Sit Before Serving: It is important for the pie to sit and cool for at least an hour before serving. The pie sets up as it cools and makes slicing it that much easier.

Storing Leftovers

I highly doubt you’ll have leftovers of this amazing chocolatey cake, but if by some slim chance you do- here’s how to keep it tasting fresh and delicious!

  • In the Refrigerator: Wrap chocolate chip cookie pie in plastic wrap or store in an airtight container. It will stay good for up to 4 days.
  • Reheating: You can reheat your pie in the oven for a few minutes at 330 degrees F or pop a slice in the microwave for 10-15 second intervals until warmed through. This gives it that ooey-gooey, just-baked effect.
