Chocolate Chip Pie

~kdp's Note:

If you like chocolate, try this pie -- just once. It is good warmed and served with vanilla ice cream. Someone in the family used to make this and wouldn't share the recipe, but after I requested it so often, (and she got tired of making it for me), she gave in and here it is.

• Total Time: 1 hrs 15 mins
• Prep Time: 15 mins
• Cook Time: 1 hrs

Ingredients:

Serves: 8

Yield: 1.0 pie

• 1 cup sugar
• ½ cup self-rising flour
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 2 slightly beaten eggs
• 6 tablespoons melted and cooled butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 unbaked pie shell

Directions:

1. Mix ingredients together.
2. *Add chips last, so the butter doesn't melt them.
3. Pour in an unbaked pie shell.
4. Bake for 1 hour at 325 degrees.
5. Let cool.
6. Pie will appear to have 3 layers when cut.

I solved the sinking chips issue by adding about a handful more flour. Excellent recipe!

I was really expecting this to be much more sinful and yummy than it actually tasted. The vote from my family was that it was pretty good, but not a "must make again". We didn't like how the chocolate chips sunk to the bottom, but didn't quite melt into their own layer. This resulted in a lot of chocolate chips sticking to the bottom of my pie pan...and I had even sprayed it with Pam just in case. I had expected the cookie layer to be chewy and gooey, but instead it was airy, eggy and slightly spongy in texture. I served this warm with vanilla ice cream and it was a nice dessert but not quite what we were looking for.

Quick and easy. I thought it tasted like a chocolate chip cookie (the little my boys let me have) Will definitely make this again.
