How to Make Angus Barn S Chocolate Chess Pie
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Melt 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter in a double boiler or microwave.
- Add 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips to the melted butter and stir until completely melted and smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, 3 large eggs, ½ cup all-purpose flour, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
- Gradually whisk the wet ingredients into the melted chocolate mixture until fully incorporated.
- Pour the chocolate mixture into your prepared 9-inch pie crust.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the center is just set but still slightly jiggly. A knife inserted near the center should come out with moist crumbs attached.
- Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before refrigerating for at least 2 hours to allow the filling to set properly.
- Top with freshly whipped cream before serving and enjoy this taste of Raleigh history!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
