Ingredients

  • 1 unbaked pie crust I used a store bought to make it easier homemade one!
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 4 tbsp 1/2 stick melted salted butter
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp espresso powder optional
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup evaporated milk

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375F.
  • Prepare your pie crust in a pie tin and pinch the edges however you'd like. Place in the freezer while you prep the rest.
  • Whisk together the sugars and melted butter.
  • Whisk the eggs in and really beat it for a minute or two - until light and fluffy
  • Beat in the cocoa powder, espresso powder, and vanilla extract
  • Fold in the evaporated milk.
  • Place pie crust on a sheet pan and pour in the batter.
  • Bake for 45-50 minutes, until jiggly like jello, but not jiggly like liquid. It will set further as it cools.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to fully cool on a wire rack, then pop in the fridge for a few hours. Best served cold with some whipped cream on top!

Notes

  • you can make this chocolate chess pie gluten free by using a gluten free pie crust
