- 1 cup (125 g / 4.4 oz) all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup (150 g / 5.3 oz) brown sugar
- 1 ½ cups (150 g / 5.3 oz) graham cracker crumbs
- ½ cup (115 g / 4 oz) unsalted butter

- ¼ cup (50 g / 1.8 oz) granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ tsp salt
Instructions
- Crust Preparation: Pulverize graham crackers with melted butter and sugar, pressing the mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie dish to create a uniform, compact base that covers bottom and sides.
- Crust Chilling: Refrigerate the prepared crust to solidify its structure and enhance stability.
- Dough Mixing: Whip softened butter and brown sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy, then integrate vanilla extract and salt seamlessly.
- Flour Integration: Fold heat-treated flour into the creamy mixture, alternating with milk to achieve a silky, consistent cookie dough texture.
- Chocolate Incorporation: Gently fold mini chocolate chips throughout the dough, ensuring even distribution for consistent flavor in every bite.
- Dough Layering: Spread the prepared cookie dough evenly across the chilled graham cracker crust, creating a smooth surface.
- Cream Topping: Whip heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract in a chilled bowl until stiff, glossy peaks form, then elegantly cover the cookie dough layer.
- Finishing Touches: Garnish with additional mini chocolate chips or a delicate chocolate drizzle for visual allure.
- Chilling and Setting: Refrigerate the pie for at least two hours, allowing flavors to meld and the dessert to set completely before serving.
Notes
- Treat Flour Carefully: Heat-treat flour to eliminate potential bacteria, ensuring food safety when using raw-style dough.
- Control Crust Texture: Press graham cracker mixture firmly and evenly to create a stable, compact base that won’t crumble when slicing.
- Chill for Perfect Consistency: Refrigerate pie for at least two hours to allow flavors to meld and achieve ideal firm yet creamy texture.
- Customize Chocolate Intensity: Experiment with different chocolate chip varieties like dark, milk, or semi-sweet to match personal flavor preferences.
