Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie

Recipe from Nestle can also be found at Our Best Bites and Allrecipes.com

1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust, homemade or store-bought.
2 large eggs
1/2 C flour
1/2 C white granulated sugar
1/2 C packed brown sugar
3/4 C real butter, softened (1 1/2 sticks)
1 C chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark works best, you might find milk too sweet)
1 C chopped pecans (you are welcome to make it without nuts)

Vanilla ice cream, or whipped cream for serving

Preheat oven to 325° F.

Beat eggs in large mixer bowl on high speed until foamy. Beat in flour, granulated sugar and brown sugar. Beat in butter. Stir in morsels and nuts. Spoon into pie shell.

Bake for 55 to 60 minutes or until knife inserted halfway between edge and center comes out clean. Cool on wire rack or serve slightly warmed. Serve with ice cream or whipped cream.

I made it this way the first time. For cooking group I cut the butter to 1/2 cup or 1 stick. I also added a pinch of salt and 1 tsp on vanilla. I liked it better this way. My husband liked it better the first way with more butter. Your call. I also only like it cooled. I think it is too rich when it is still warm.
