We all know that you can never go wrong with chocolate chip cookies. And my favorite dessert is pie. So what happens when you combine the two?
This Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie!
I originally posted a version of this pie back in 2012, and after making it again recently, I decided it needed a few changes and a new chance to be in the spotlight.
And let’s just say we may be needing to make this pie a weekly dessert at our house. It really is just that good!
Ingredients
- Pie Crust: I like to use my homemade pie crust. But feel free to use a store bought crust if you are in a time crunch.
- Butter: I like to use unsalted butter. If you use salted butter, just cut back on the salt a smidge.
- Sugar: I use both white sugar and brown sugar.
- Eggs: You’ll need 2 large eggs. For best results, they should be room temperature.
- Vanilla: Pure vanilla extract will give you the best flavor.
- Flour: You need all-purpose flour for this recipe. I call for 10 tablespoons, which is 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons. My original recipe only used 1/2 cup, but I wanted a little more structure so I add an extra 2 tablespoons.
- Salt: This just helps to balance the flavors.
- Chocolate Chips: I like to use semi-sweet chocolate chips so it isn’t overly sweet. Feel free to use milk chocolate if that is what you prefer.
- Nuts: I think the nuts not only add great texture, but really help to balance the sweetness. I used pecans, but walnuts would work, as well. If you aren’t a fan of nuts, you can leave them out.
How to Make Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie
STEP 1: Prep your pie crust. Roll it out, transfer it to a pie dish, and flute the edges. I like to put it in the freezer for a few minutes while I make the filling to keep it nice and cold.
STEP 2: Beat the butter with both sugars. Then beat in the eggs and the vanilla extract.
STEP 3: Add in the flour, salt, chocolate chips, and pecans. I like to stir this together with a spatula at this point instead of using a mixer.
STEP 4: Spread the cookie dough mixture into the pie crust. The filling is stickier than a regular cookie dough. Bake the pie until the top is golden brown and set up. This should take about 45-55 minutes. You’ll want to make sure the top and crust doesn’t get too brown, so make sure to keep an eye on it.
Tips and Tricks
My original version posted here was made with a mix of peanut butter chips and milk chocolate chips. I thought it was too sweet, so I took out the peanut butter chips and just used semi-sweet chocolate chips. And I thought it was perfection!
The pecans also really help to curb the sweetness, so if you do decide to leave them out, it may be a little sweeter.
This pie needs a little time to set up, so don’t cut into it right out of the oven. I’d give it at least 30 minutes. I still like to sere it warm, but it’s super ooey and gooey if you cut into it too early.
We like to serve this with ice cream or whipped cream. But even just by itself it’s delicious!
I stored the leftovers in the refrigerator, but heated it up slightly before eating those said leftovers.

I’ve been wondering where to store my new griddler. Right now it’s just sitting on the floor in my office. But I may store it under my sink in the bathroom now. 🙂
Kristy says
I ran into the same kitchen dilemma when we moved. I have gadgets in cabinets and closets all over the place to get them to fit. (Not the bathroom though – LOL!)
You know I’m not a big fan of chocolate – but I have to say that first picture of the pie has me drooling. 🙂
teresa says
good luck with getting everything to fit! i feel like i have the same problem EVERY time we move.
oh this PIE, how amazing!
Joanne says
I don’t think it’s gross! but I have even less kitchen space than you do (I guarantee it) and will store anything anywhere.
OMG. This pie. I’ll be slivering it away this weekend.
Jenn L @ Peas and Crayons says
I may or may not have just drooled a little 😉 ohmygosh and I’m totally running out of space for appliances and such! I got these little pull out trays that you install under the sink and in other low cabinets and it makes it easy to find and sort things! Highly highly recommend them! <3
so excited to have found your blog today! off to follow you on twitter/pinterest! <3
Cassie @ Bake Your Day says
Definitely a recipe worth saving. This sounds amazing! I hope you are getting settled in!
Averie @ Love Veggies and Yoga says
This looks wonderful and I like that it’s one big pie (not individual cookies) which is a time saver to make and throw it all in one pie pan.
““Do you think it’s gross if I were to store some small kitchen appliances under the sink in the bathroom?” <– Things like that juicer in a box, the as seen on tv gadget, things like that you may not use lots and need a home for, I say go for it. I store my graveyard of appliances in my coat closet in the front hall.

I have wanted to make a cookie pie for a long time. This recipe looks perfect since I love chocolate and peanut butter! Also I just moved recently and I am having the same problem. I live in a bigger place with more storage in certain areas of my home but lack storage and space in other areas. One thing I did to help me organize was to get a storage ‘pantry’ from Target. It is set up in my office and I have all my blogging props, tools, etc. in this cabinet. These are things that I don’t need to prepare my dish or plate it just all the ‘extra’ things I use. Hope you get settled soon! I know I am still working on it.
Katrina says
Mmm this is my kind of pie!
Annalise says
I so want a slice of this pie right now! I’ve made a tollhouse pie before (and loved every bite of it) and I love the idea of adding peanut butter. Mmmmm.
Good luck with the move! I totally sympathize with the tiny kitchen, so hard for foodies like us!
Tara @ Chip Chip Hooray says
Mmm, I have seen chocolate chip cookie pies, but I’m a biiiig fan of adding those peanut butter chips! 🙂
Erin says
I have problems finding space for everything in my kitchen as well. A lot is stored in the laundry closet off the kitchen. But I also live in apt which have notoriously small kitchens.
Love this cookie pie, especially since it has peanut butter in it!
Abby says
Looks amaaaazing. Perfect with a glass of cold milk!
Rosa says
What an irresistible dessert! Your pie must be insanely delicious.
Cheers,

Colleen @ What's Baking in the Barbershop?! says
I have seen cookie pies like this before but haven’t made one yet. I’ve pinned a pic of your delectable looking treat, so I’ll definitely be making this in the future! 🙂 Good luck settling in to your new home!
