Picture cookie dough sandwiched between two baked cookies; that’s how this chocolate chip pie tastes.
No one in my family is complaining that I am on a chocolate baking spree. We had a little break in the “monotony” while we celebrated Third Son’s 16th birthday. He asked for a strawberry cheesecake. Now we are back to one more week of chocolate before Valentine’s Day. I am actually making recipes that I marked, copied or saved years ago. It feels good to make my way through the list. It almost validates my 6 X 4 foot bookshelf crammed with cookbooks. This pie is super simple to make. I used a store bought graham cracker crust because this month that is how I am rolling. A regular pie crust would work just as well, but I think the graham cracker crust kept to the whole cookie dough sandwich concept. The filling whips together in a snap. You don’t even have to dirty the mixer. It does need to bake for almost an hour, so do plan for that.
This pie is great warm with vanilla ice cream. Once it’s cooled in the fridge, though, it can be handled without a fork and plate….just like a giant wedge of cookie on the go. What are a few crumbs when you can have a cookie dough sandwich while you drive to work? {blush} (Did I actually just suggest that??)
