How to make Triple Chocolate Brownie Pie
- Preheat your oven to 350-F.
- Melt the butter and unsweetened chocolate in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring it until smooth.

- Add one egg at a time to the chocolate-sugar mixture, mixing well after each egg.
- Stir in the flour, vanilla and almond extracts, and salt.

Tips & substitutions
- Ensure your chocolate is quite cool before adding the eggs, or you risk scrambling the eggs.
- You can mix up the chocolate. Use dark chocolate instead of white chocolate chips if you prefer, but the white chocolate chips look so pretty in the pie.
- Don’t care for pecans? Try this pie with walnuts, or skip the nuts entirely.
- You can use chocolate chunks instead of chips if you prefer a pie with a bit more texture.
Serving suggestions
All you need with this Triple Chocolate Brownie Pie is a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. I love serving this easy pie recipe after hearty family meals like chicken and rice bakes or homey Shepherd’s Pie, but you can serve it after any meal. It’s just that good!
