Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch pie pan or coat it with non-stick spray.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and unsweetened chocolate together, stirring frequently until smooth. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Stir the sugar into the melted chocolate mixture. Add the vanilla extract and salt, mixing until well combined.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring they are fully incorporated before moving to the next step.
Gently fold in the flour until just combined. Do not overmix to ensure a tender texture.
If using, fold in the chopped nuts to add texture and a nutty flavor.
Pour the batter into the prepared pie pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the top is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (do not overbake).
Allow the brownie pie to cool in the pan on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
Serve on its own, or top with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a decadent dessert!
