Deep Dish Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie
“Hot, gooey chocolate chip cookie pie with a buttery pie crust. Topped with vanilla ice cream and hot fudge! Easy, classic and a bit over the top recipe”
Deep dish chocolate chip cookie pie? Uhhhh…yes please! Like…duh!
I love desserts that are simple yet a bit over the top. This deep dish chocolate chip cookie pie is amazing and restaurant quality! It brings to the table all the comforts of old fashioned chocolate chip cookies but simply top it with vanilla ice cream and chocolate drizzle and you have something that will wow’em!
I found this recipe scribbled on the inside of my grandmother’s Southern Living cookbook. I swear that woman has the BEST cookbook collection EVER! I can remember her making this deep dish chocolate chip cookie pie a few times growing up.
She usually made it for a Sunday dinner dessert and I always thought it was so decadent. It’s perfect for a date night dessert! The coconut, pecans, toffee, and milk chocolate goes so well together! However you can really add in whatever you’d like! Heck even just plain chocolate chips would be fab!!
I’ve told you guys before how crazy my husband is about anything chocolate chip cookie related right? Needless to say he was on cloud nine with this! Call me crazy, but I really love it when he gets this excited about something I make. He’s like a little kid anxiously waiting at the table with a big smile, a fork and knife. Adorbs!
Just like with regular homemade chocolate chips cookies, you can change up the texture with this recipe by simply increasing or decreasing the flour. 1/2 cup of flour creates a really gooey, dense chocolate chip cookie pie and 1 cup creates a more fluffier pie. I change it up depending on my mood but usually I stick with around 3/4 cups to get the best of both worlds.
You’ll want to watch it for the last 10 minutes of cooking to keep from over cooking it. When I pull mine out of the oven it still appears to be a bit underdone, but as it cools offs it gets to that perfect texture that I just love!
Watch me make this deep dish chocolate chip cookie pie from start to finish!

I just made this. I kept putting it in my oven because it never solidified. I turned up the heat and left it in the oven at least 1hr 30 minutes and it’s still runny. Did this happen to anyone else?
I can say emphatically that this is the best pie ever! I have been making it for about 8 years now and everyone loves it. And yes, I change up the mix-ins — sometimes only chocolate chips, sometimes choc chips and peanut butter chips, and sometimes chopped candy bars or mini Hershey kisses or chopped PB cups! Honestly, everyone seems to love the choc chips only version!
I have to say I have had to make 2 (and fairly soon I will be making 3 of them) for family functions because everyone wants it. I used to have a few avid eaters and due to word of mouth — they ALL want it now – it is the dessert that is wiped out completely!
And, it feels great to make something that people love, enjoy and request! Bake this …it is quick (esp with the store-bought pie dough), easy and no fuss and then bask in the glow of the compliments.
Soooo good Mrs. Diva! T/S:-)
Can you please tell me what is flavoured shortening? and measurements of the butter please. I do not know what you mean by a •1 stick of cold butter. Please can you let me know I really want to try this and do not want to make a mistake. This looks so yummy!!
Are you referring to this recipe or the pie crust?
A stick of butter is 1/2 cup of butter.
I made this yesterday and it is DELICIOUS!!!! I am about to some for breakfast! LOL
Thank you for this wonderful recipe!
Can I leave out the coconut in pecans I’m not a fan of those two
“The coconut, pecans, toffee, and milk chocolate goes so well together! However you can really add in whatever you’d like! Heck even just plain chocolate chips would be fab!!” I’m doing just the chocolate chunks because I don’t like coconut and pecans are super expensive here.
Brandi, that was helpful, thanks. I like all those ingredients but my husband does not like coconut or pecans… I didn’t want to leave them out and compromise the recipe, however, it sounds like it still works after reading your comment.
