This easy maple brownie pie is a rich, chocolate fudge like brownie baked inside a flaky buttery pie crust. Topped with ice cream, powdered sugar or maple caramel sauce.
Preheat the oven to 350 F (177 C). Remove the store bought pie crust from the fridge. Roll out the crust on a lightly floured surface to about 11" round and 1/8" thick. Roll into a pie pan. Chill in the fridge.
Whisk in the sugar, espresso and salt until smooth and well combined. Whisk in the eggs and cocoa powder. Stir in the flour until smooth and well combined.
The brownie filling will continue to bake while cooling, so err on the side of slightly underbaking. Cool in the pan set on a cooling rack for 30-45 minutes.
