Description
The Decadent Hot Fudge Pie is a rich, gooey chocolate dessert featuring a fudgy interior and crispy edges. Perfect for chocolate lovers, this easy-to-make pie is topped with whipped cream or chocolate syrup for extra indulgence.
Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
1 cup heavy cream (for serving)
Chocolate syrup (for drizzling)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch pie pan.
- In a large bowl, mix the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; the batter will be thick.
- Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and walnuts (if using).
- Pour the batter into the prepared pie pan and spread evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set, but the center remains slightly gooey.
- Remove from the oven and let the pie cool for about 10 minutes.
- Serve warm with a dollop of whipped cream and a drizzle of chocolate syrup. Enjoy!
Notes
- For a gluten-free version, substitute the flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
- Add a teaspoon of peppermint extract for a minty variation.
- For a spicier twist, add cayenne pepper or chili powder.
- Top with raspberries or cherries for a fruity contrast.
