Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie
The second pie for my pie competition is the Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie. I saw this in Bakerella’s blog a while ago and new I needed to make it. I was shooting for best combination (pie + ice cream) with this one. Who can resist warm chocolate chip gooeyness plus vanilla bean ice cream?!?

1/2 cup packed brown sugar
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) butter, softened

1 cup chopped pecans
Serve with ice cream (optional)
Preheat oven 325 degrees F.
Beat eggs in large mixer bowl on high until foamy.
Beat in flour, granulated sugar and brown sugar. Beat in butter.
Stir in morsels and nuts and spoon into pie shell.
Bake for 55-60 minutes. Cool on wire rack. Serve warm.

My play is always running when these come out… so I’ve never gone to a silly midnight showing 🙁 These silly cake pops also look delish!
That tip about using a sturdy plastic straw to pit cherries is genius — I’ve been struggling with that exact problem for years! The idea of roasting the cherries first to deepen the flavor is such a smart move too. Reading through all these detailed baking steps is a lovely mental escape from my usual world of layering sound loops and musical characters at Sprinki Sbrunga. It’s refreshing to spend a few minutes on something so tactile and delicious instead of fiddling with audio tracks.
