Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 oz Unsweetened chocolate
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 2 tsp Vanilla extract
- 3 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 1 9-inch Premade pie crust (unbaked)
- 1 cup Whipped cream (optional, for garnish)
- 2 tbsp Chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsweetened chocolate and butter over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Whisk in the granulated sugar and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition.
Stir in the flour and salt until the mixture is smooth and thick.
Pour the fudge filling into the unbaked 9-inch pie crust, spreading it evenly.
Place the pie on the center rack of the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top develops a glossy crust. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with moist crumbs but not wet batter.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours. The filling will set further as it cools.
Slice the pie and serve as is, or top with whipped cream and chocolate shavings for an extra indulgent presentation.
