This is the most delicious, warm and gooey chocolate chip cookie pie recipe, with a shortbread cookie crust! It’s one of my favorite pies of all time and every bite tastes better than any old cookie by itself.
I tried my first chocolate chip cookie pie when we were in Knoxville, Tennessee visiting for work. Not surprisingly, I actually really liked Knoxville! It felt warm and comfortable there and I truly adore the southern hospitality.
And they have chocolate chip cookie pie, which is the best on the planet. I was inspired to make my own cookie pie recipe with a cookie shortbread crust and it turned out incredible! It’s gooey, chocolatey, buttery and every bite is pure cookie heaven!
I can’t get over how gorgeous the pie is when it’s fresh out of the oven. Not only does the house smell like a cookie factory, but the pie looks like it’s out of a magazine! It’s beautiful! Perfect served with ice cream too.
How to Make a Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie – Step By Step
Shortbread Pie Crust
- Start with the crust by beating the butter until fluffy and add in the sugar.
- Then, add in the flour and lightly mix. Add in the extract and baking powder and mix until mixture is crumbly.
- Press into a pie dish, up the sides and make a nice crust and bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 10 minutes.
- Let the crust cool before adding the filling.
Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie Filling
- To make the chocolate chip cookie pie filling, beat the butter, brown sugar and white sugar in a blender until light and fluffy.
- Add in the eggs and continue to beat. Adding vanilla and salt.
- Slowly add in the flour and blend on low. Add in the chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter in the pie crust and bake in a 325 degree oven for 30 minutes until the pie is golden brown. Do not over bake, remember this is a pie not a cookie, so you want it to be more gooey like a pie.
Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie – An Easy Pie Recipe
This recipe is fairly simple and so yummy! It’s perfect for a quick turnaround treat or as an easy party pie! You beat the butter until fluffy and then beat eggs in and add in both sugars. We used both 3/4 cup brown and 1/4 cup granulated sugar for this recipe. Add in the vanilla extract and next the dry ingredients and then you’ll spread the mixture over the shortbread crust. I seriously love this pie!
An Easy Homemade Pie Crust
The shortbread cookie crust is so easy and requires zero rolling! The dough is made with butter, flour, confectioner’s sugar, vanilla extract and baking powder and is pressed into the pie pan, eliminating the rolling process.
To make a nice edge with the crust, press the dough up against the sides and then mold it to the pie pan.
Just go with the shape of the pie dish you’re using and it makes it easy to create a nice crust. The crust is baked in a preheated 350 degree oven for about 10 minutes. Then, let it cool before you add the chocolate chip mixture to it.
If You Love Chewy Cookies, Then This Pie Has Your Name On It!
Since this is technically a pie and not a cookie, it doesn’t have the consistency of a cookie. It’s more gooey like the center of a warm chocolate chip cookie and has a pie texture to it. I personally think it’s better than a cookie!
Top Tips For A Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie
- Always use a preheated oven
- Let the crust cool before adding the filling
- Do not over bake the pie, remember this is a pie not a cookie, so you want it to be more gooey like a pie.
- Serve this gooey chocolate chip cookie pie warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream!

Wendy says
I only have salted butter. Is that ok?
Eden says
Yes, that will work… just use less salt anywhere else in the recipe.
Nadia says
Hi
Can’t wait to try this. Can you please tell me what’s the size of your pie pan ?
Thanks and have a nice day !
Eden says
Hi! Yes – 10 1/2″ diam., 2 1/2″ high. 1 1/4-qt. cap. It’s a standard deep dish pie pan.
Shari says
This looks amazing! Could I use a mixer in stead of a blender?
Eden says
yes!
ELLY BROWN says
Hi Eden,
Can you tell me if the cooking temperature and time for your chocolate chip cookie pie (with shortbread crust) is for a convection oven or conventional oven? Just curious so I can adjust those as needed.
Thank you,
Elly
Eden says
Hi Elly – We cook it at 350-degree conventional. The crust is cooked in 350 for 10 minutes before and then cooked with the pie filling after. The cooking times really vary depending on your oven, location, temperature… the joys of baking. But it seems to be finished after 40 minutes. You want the pie filling to be pie, not a baked cookie. It will be gooey but that is what you want! Hope this helps 🙂
RNM says
Not a blender, a mixer. And I baked it 35 minutes and it’s no where near done (yes, my oven is at the right temp). The crust is a keeper, but otherwise a waste of ingredients.
Joyce says
It has been in the oven for 57 minutes and still totally raw in the center. Was the cooking temp supposed to be 350° Instead of the 325 listed?? The crust says to bake at 350 and pie at 325. Wondering if this is a typo.
Eden says
Hi Joyce, cook the pue until it’s a nice golden brown and just a little jiggly in the center. You will know when it’s done!

We love chocolate chip cookies and now I can serve a fancier feeling dessert that tastes just like our favorite cookies!
Samantha Brook says
I plan on making this for my fiance’s birthday on Sunday. I have a question regarding preparation. Can I make it ahead of time, keep it in the fridge, and then bake it on Sunday?
Eden says
Hi Samantha! We think that would work. It might affect the cooking time though since it will be cold. Just keep checking on it and make sure you don’t over bake. It should have a gooey pie texture not a cookie texture.
