Preheat your oven to 180Β°C (350Β°F).
Place the pre-made pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish, crimp the edges as desired, and set it aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together in 20-second intervals, stirring after each interval until smooth and fully combined.
Let the chocolate mixture cool for about 5 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, flour, cocoa powder, and salt.
Slowly add the cooled chocolate mixture to the dry ingredients and mix until combined.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
Stir in the vanilla extract.
Fold in the walnuts, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Pour the fudge filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
Place the pie dish on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the pie is set around the edges and slightly jiggles in the center.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
Optionally, serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
