Make this rich, decadent fudge pie that tastes like a warm brownie in a pie shell. This old-fashioned recipe uses simple ingredients for a foolproof, gooey chocolate dessert perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust (buttery crust recommended)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Place the unbaked pie crust onto a baking sheet.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, cocoa powder, and salt until combined.
  3. Add the melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk to the dry ingredients. Mix with a whisk until the batter is smooth. Do not overmix.
  4. If using, stir in the chopped nuts.
  5. Pour the rich chocolate fudge filling carefully into the unbaked pie crust.
  6. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes. The edges should look set, but the center will still be slightly soft and gooey, similar to a brownie.
  7. Remove the fudge pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before slicing. This allows the gooey center to set properly.
  8. Serve this homemade fudge pie at room temperature or slightly warm, perhaps with vanilla ice cream for a truly decadent chocolate dessert experience.

Notes

  • For a Hot Fudge Pie Recipe Easy variation, serve the pie warm with a scoop of ice cream.
  • This recipe creates a texture similar to a Fudgy Brownie Pie.
  • You can use a pre-made crust to make this an Easy Fudge Pie.
