Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie
Jan. 28th, 2004 12:07 amOkay, enough people asked I figured write this down while I can still remember:
Cookie Pie
2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 cup packed light-brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs
2 cups (about 12 oz) chocolate chips (semisweet or milk chocolate, as suits your preference)
Preheat oven to 325.
Fit your electric mixer with the paddle attachment (TBQ's note: Or do this by hand, it's not that difficult. Just get your butter softer to begin with.) combine butter and sugar until light and fluffy (use medium speed if you're using a mixer, then reduce to low for the rest of the ingredients). Add the salt, vanilla, eggs and baking soda. Mix until combined. Add the flour. Mix until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
Take a 9 inch pie tin and line the bottom with parchment paper. Butter, then sugar the parchment and the sides of the pan (TBQ's note: the paper will stay in place if you rub a little butter onto the bottom of the pan first, then put the paper on it). Put the cookie dough into the pan, smoothing it out to an even layer of thickness.
Bake for 45-55 minutes. Pie is done when edges are golden and center is set. Take pie out of the oven and allow to cool in the pan for about 20 minutes. Then remove pie from pan, slice like a regular pie and serve.
Other notes: The texture is somewhat cakelike. It's also sweet but not obnoxiously so. I find this is a milder recipe than the one I usually use for chocolate chip cookies, which I think goes well considering that you're getting a larger piece of food per portion. Definitely serve this up with some water or milk though ;) It can be stored in a cake holder or even cut up and tossed into a Ziploc for future eating. No clue on how many calories it's got and frankly I'd rather remain ignorant. ;)
Enjoy!
