Fudge Pie

A pie is the perfect Southern touch after a filling meal. This decadent Fudge Pie is one of our favorites, and is made with semi-sweet chocolate and pecans. And what if we told you that most of the work that goes into this dessert recipe involves the microwave? You heard that right. You use your trusty microwave to melt the chocolate morsels and butter into evaporated milk, and this chocolatey mixture (that looks tasty enough to drink!) becomes the warm base that you'll mix the rest of the ingredients into before throwing it all into the pie shell! Go ahead and get that frozen unbaked piecrust shell—we're looking to make this pie your easiest one yet. When this pretty pie comes out of the oven, you'll be thinking it looks a lot like your Thanksgiving pecan pie at first glance. But as soon as you slice into the decadent dessert, the oozing chocolate inside will put those thoughts to rest. We suggest serving a slice of this ooey-gooey favorite with a healthy scoop of ice cream. Pro tip: If you've got some extra ingredients, try making two pies and then sharing one with a friend or giving as a host gift. You'll put everyone else to shame! It's almost too easy and too delicious…almost.
