All Hail The Chocolate Chip Cookie
I challenge you to find a bigger chocolate chip cookie fan than I am. I actually used to drive around our city to local bakeries looking for the best chocolate chip cookies in town! I’ve been tweaking my own chocolate chip cookie recipe for years, trying to find the perfect mix of buttery, chocolatey perfection.
But, alas, I honestly haven’t found one that matches the Nestle Toll House Recipe on the back of the Chocolate Morsel Bag.
Which is why I’m so surprised that it’s taken me this long to discover that you can make that classic Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe into a Pie! What!?!?!
Cookie, Meet Pie
We’ve got a ton of cookie recipes on this website from Butter Pecan Cookies to Gluten Free Kitchen Sink Cookies. And we’ve got a ton of Pie recipes too, from the Easy Honey Pie to Strawberry Jello Cool Whip Pie.
But to combine a pie and a cookie together? Yes Please!
Toll House Pie
This Toll House Pie is a Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie that is baked in a way so that the top of it has a nice crunch, but the inside is like a slightly under baked chocolate chip cookie fresh out of the oven. It’s rich, dense and tastes awesome with a cold glass of milk! And, it’s super easy to make (especially since we use a premade pie crust, but you can use your own recipe if you prefer) and has a delicious brown sugar base that the original Toll House Recipe is famous for.
Here is what you’ll need to get started. For the full recipe, check out the recipe card below:
- 9″ pie crust, uncooked
- 2 eggs
- 3/4 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 3/4 cup butter, softened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 package, 12 oz, chocolate chips, divided
Toll House Chocolate Chip Pie Tips
- PIE CRUST– As mentioned above, we use a premade pie crust, but if your the type that really wants a homemade pie crust, go for it. But, honestly, no one is gonna even notice the crust when compared to the ooey, gooey, chocolate chip awesomeness on top of it.
- TOPPINGS- We topped ours with some extra chocolate chips. But you can also drizzle hot fudge over the top. Or, serve warm with a dollop of Vanilla Ice Cream or Whipped Cream.
- WHAT KIND OF CHOCOLATE CHIPS TO USE?- Really, you can’t go wrong. When I bake my chocolate chip cookies, I use 1/2 bag of milk chocolate chips and 1/2 bag of semi-sweet chocolate chunks. For simplicity, I used just a full bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips for this recipe. But I’m all for experimentation!
- ADD NUTS?- Sure! My son is allergic to tree nuts, so we omitted the walnuts in this recipe. But go ahead and add them (or pecans) if that sounds yummy.
I hope you enjoy this recipe for Toll House Pie! This Chocolate Chip Dessert is definitely a life changer, you’ve gotta try it!
