Chocolate lovers, you are in for a real treat today with this scrumptious old fashioned chocolate fudge pie recipe. It reminds me of brownies! I love to eat mine while it’s still warm so that the pie melts the ice cream a little.

It’s also a pretty simple recipe that won’t take much time to whip up. I love easy recipes because that means I don’t have to wait too long to eat it!

Make it for a special occasion (like Easter) or just because. Do we really need a reason to eat more chocolate? I don’t think so!

Variations or Substitutions

  • Use a graham cracker crust, Oreo crust, or a homemade pie crust.
  • Substitute brown sugar for the granulated sugar.
  • Use bittersweet chocolate, semi-sweet chocolate, or dark chocolate instead of unsweetened chocolate. You may want to reduce the sugar by ¼ cup.
  • Switch out the all-purpose flour for the whole wheat flour.
  • Add in chopped walnuts or pecans for extra crunch.
  • Add one teaspoon of espresso powder to accentuate the chocolate flavors.

Storage Instructions

Cover any leftover pie with plastic wrap or place it in an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. I recommend warming the pie up a little in the microwave before serving.

Can I Freeze?

Yes, you can freeze fudge pie. Make sure to cool the pie completely first. Cover it tightly in plastic wrap and then again in aluminum foil. This helps to prevent freezer burn. Place the pie in a freezer bag and store it in the freezer for up to 2 months.

When ready to serve the pie, let it thaw overnight in the fridge. Reheat at 350°F for about 10 to 15 minutes until warmed through.

Recipe Tips and Tricks

  • Use good quality chocolate. The quality of your ingredients will impact the taste of your pie.
  • Don’t burn the chocolate. When you are melting the chocolate and butter, make sure not to overheat the chocolate or it can seize and become grainy.
  • Don’t overmix the filling. This can make the pie too dense and hard. Mix until just combined.
  • Serve with ice cream or whipped cream. It’s a little indulgence that makes the experience so much better.
