Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie – Guest Post from Jen’s Favorite Cookies
This Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie is one of the best things ever! Probably because it’s like having a chocolate chip cookie in a pie crust.
Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie
Hey there! I’m Jen from Jen’s Favorite Cookies, and I’m thrilled to be chatting with all the amazing Cupcakes and Kale Chips fans today! There are a few things you should know about me. I’m a wife, and mom of three teens. I’m a dog lover and cat hater. I have never used the phrase “This is too chocolatey.” And I love cookies. I’ve even dedicated my blog to simple recipes for cookies, desserts, and snacks. But mostly cookies.
My family is always complaining that I never make the same thing twice. I make 2-3 new desserts every week, so it’s always something different and fresh. Each family member has their own idea of what they want me to make again.
My middle child has been begging for homemade banana pudding layered with chocolate sheet cake and whipped cream. He mentions it about once a week.
My husband wants me to re-create the Cherries Jubilee cookies I made for him a while back.
But me, if I was to remake my favorite dessert, what would I make? Actually, I have a list about 20 items long. Welcome to my world. But this pie definitely makes the list. It’s so awesome, with chocolate chips and pecans and pie crust!
If you are into making your own pie crust, I say go for it. I actually use this crust recipe from Emeril Lagasse to make mine. It’s totally flaky and delicious.
While I can make a really delicious pie crust, what I cannot do is make a beautiful one. I think there’s something wrong with me. I cannot make a pie crust look nice to save my life. It always looks like my 7-year-old nephew made it. Actually, he would probably do a better job than me.
Therefore, I use a frozen crust. I call for a frozen crust in the recipe, but don’t let that stop you from making a fresh homemade crust. Then fill that baby with this pecan and chocolate chip goodness and eat it warm.
Trust me!

Pam says
Could I make this with no nuts?
Brianne @ Cupcakes & Kale Chips says
Yes, you can leave the nuts out.
Jayde says
Do I need to let the crust thaw out at all .
Brianne @ Cupcakes & Kale Chips says
I would check the directions on the crust you buy, as they may vary.
Laura says
I doubled the recipe. When it came to the nuts, however, I used 1c pecans for one pie; and 1c walnuts for the other. I followed the recipe but it looked it was not fully cooked through. Aah! Also, is there a need to refrigerate afterwards? Thanks
Brianne @ Cupcakes & Kale Chips says
This was a guest post on my site, so I am not super familiar with the recipe, but I am wondering how it set up after you let it cool. Given that it’s a cookie-type filling, you probably don’t need to refrigerate if you are eating with a couple days.
Meghan says
This pie is so good. Got many compliments. I made it exactly as directed. I am making it again today! Not like a cookie texture, but more like a gooey, buttery cookie…soooo good! Thanks for the recipe.
Brianne Cupcakes & Kale Chips says
Thank you, Meghan. I’m so glad you enjoyed the pie recipe!
Judy Kay says
I have made this pie many, many times and it always turns out great. Took it to lots of covered dish dinners to have people tell me I should sell it. The one thing I changed for family consumption was using milk chocolate chips due to less acidity, worked fine.
Brianne Cupcakes & Kale Chips says
I’m so happy to hear that you like the recipe, Judy. Thank you for your comment and rating!
Debi says
I have been making this for years and it is the BEST pie ever! Actually it is one of the pies that I bake that I eat!
Brianne Cupcakes & Kale Chips says
I’m so glad that you love the recipe, Debi! Isn’t it wonderful when we can find recipes that we love to eat as much as we love to create? 🙂
