Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C).
Roll out the pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie pan. Trim and crimp the edges as desired. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
In a large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and the melted butter until combined.
Add the eggs to the sugar mixture, one at a time, whisking well after each addition.
Mix in the vanilla extract, all-purpose flour, salt, and ground nutmeg, ensuring the mixture is smooth.
Slowly add the buttermilk to the mixture, whisking constantly to ensure everything is thoroughly combined.
Sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the bottom of the prepared pie crust.
Pour the custard mixture over the chocolate chips, ensuring theyβre evenly distributed.
Carefully transfer the pie to the preheated oven and bake for 45β50 minutes, or until the custard is set and the top of the pie is lightly golden. A knife inserted in the center should come out clean, though melted chocolate may cling to it.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack. The custard will continue to set as it cools.
Once cooled, slice and serve. The pie is delicious on its own or paired with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
