This Toll House pie is one of my favorites for the holidays or any special occasion -- it tastes like a thick and fluffy chocolate chip cookie baked in a flaky, buttery pie crust, and it's seriously heaven.
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F., and if the pie crust isn’t in a pie tin yet, prepare the unbaked pie crust by placing it in a deep-dish 9-inch pie plate and crimp the edges.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs until foamy.
Add the flour, white sugar, and brown sugar, and beat to combine.
Add the softened butter, and beat until well combined. It should look like thin dough or batter.
Stir in the chocolate chips and pecans.
Place the mixture into the prepared pie shell.
Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a tooth pick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean. The center will be puffy and not jiggly.
Cool for 30 minutes, and then serve warm with ice cream.
Notes
You can make this pie 1 to 2 days ahead of time—it's great at room temperature, too, and travels well.
My Favorite Pie Crust Recipe is found here, it makes two shells (a top and a bottom) so you can freeze half for this recipe or make a second pie like a pumpkin that only needs a bottom too.
