Chocolate Chip Pie
Recipe courtesy Deen Brothers

Ingredients
Pie:
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup (2-sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
3 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3 cups semisweet chocolate chips

2 cups chopped walnuts, optional

Whipped cream:
2 pints (4-cups) heavy cream
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease 2 (9-inch) pie
plates; set aside.

In a large bowl, sift together the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. In
the bowl of an electric mixer, cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated
sugar. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating until incorporated. Beat in the vanilla.

Add flour mixture, a little at a time, and mix until fully combined. Fold in the 3
cups chocolate chips and, if desired, the walnuts. Divide the dough between the
prepared pie plates and smooth the tops with a spatula.

Bake about 30 minutes or until pies are golden and slightly firm to the touch but
still soft. If the pies begin to darken too much before they are baked through,
cover with foil and continue baking. Let pies cool completely on a wire rack.

While the pies cool, whip the cream and confectioners' sugar until soft peaks form
(tips curl). Fold in the chocolate chips. Refrigerate whipped cream until ready to
use. Spread the whipped cream over the pies and serve.
