How to Make No Fuss Brownie Pie

Instead of reaching for a box of brownie mix at the supermarket, make this pie from scratch. You'll be able to tell the difference. This recipe wworks well with walnuts or pecans, too.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Pam nonstick cooking spray
• One egg
• 1/2 cup white sugar
• 1/4 cup butter or margarine, softened
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tbsp. cocoa powder
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional)

How to Make No Fuss Brownie Pie

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray an 8" pie pan heavily with Pam.

2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients and mix well with a wooden spoon.

3. Push the dry ingredients to the side and make a "well" in the center. Add egg and butter (or margarine). Stir well to mix.

4. Use a rubber spatula to spread the brownie mixture evenly into the pie plate.

5. Place in a preheated oven and bake at 325 degrees for 15 minutes. The pie is done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.Remove from the oven and serve warm or at room temperature with vanilla ice cream.

Tips & Warnings

• Hershey's dark cocoa works well in this recipe, too.
• Be sure to mix the dry ingredients before adding the egg and butter; this prevents lumps.
• Don't overbake the pie, or the crust will dry out.
