Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie

I like pie, but I am really picky about what pie I will eat. No fruit, no meringue, and the crust, well it just can't be brown. High maintenance?... Just when it comes to pie crust. There are certain things that once you make them homemade, you can't go back to store bought. One of those things is pie crust. I forgot to take pictures while making my crust so here's a recipe: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Buttermilk-Pie-Crust/Detail.aspx. Pie crust can be complicated and frustrating so don't get short tempered, especially if it is your first attempt at pie crust. Now for the filling. O. My. Word. This thing is amazing and completely changed my view on pie. It's just like a gooey cookie cake with pie crust. If you like pie, you should make this. If you don't like pie, you should make this. Trust. It's worth it. Here's what you need for the filling

Butter, flour, eggs, sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, pecans, and chocolate chips. In the bowl of a mixer, beat the eggs until foamy

Add the sugar, brown sugar, and flour

Mix those ingredients together until well combined. Add the butter

Beat that in on medium speed until the mixture is smooth. Lastly, add the pecans, chocolate chips, and vanilla

Fold all of that in

Pour the finished filling into a prepared and unbaked pie shell

(Don't judge my crust, I know it's not cute.) Now put the pie in the oven and bake! About halfway through baking you may need to line the crust with foil to keep from browning. Or you can set a piece of foil over the whole pie because sometimes the filling will get browned

I found this recipe at bakerella.com. Please give this website a visit to see the inside because I didn't get to take a picture of the inside. Here's the link to Bakerella's cookie pie: http://www.bakerella.com/chocolate-chip-cookie-pie…-oh-my/
