Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter

- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare the pie crust by placing it in a 9-inch pie dish and set aside.

- Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir until fully combined. Fold in chocolate chips if using.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pie crust and smooth the top.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs. Avoid overbaking.
- Allow the pie to cool for 10–15 minutes before serving for best results.
Notes

- Use parchment paper to make pie removal easier.
- Add a pinch of espresso powder to intensify the chocolate flavor.
