How to Make Chocolate Buttermilk Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. Melt 1 cup of chocolate chips in a double boiler over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth. Remove from heat.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, ¼ cup all-purpose flour, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1 cup buttermilk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients (sugar mixture) to the wet ingredients (egg mixture), beating with an electric mixer until well combined and smooth.
  6. Gently stir in the melted chocolate until evenly distributed.
  7. Pour the batter into your prepared 9-inch pie crust.
  8. Bake on the middle oven rack for 65-75 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs. The top should be set and slightly crisp.
  9. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld. Garnish with whipped cream, if desired.
