Chocolate Chip Pie

This pie always brings back memories for me of when my mom used to make it when I was a little kid. Its tastes like a combination of a brownie and a cookie and smells amazing while its baking! 

This recipe is pretty standard, but I used the one from http://www.verybestbaking.com, with some changes. I don't put nuts in my pie, since I don't like them. And I also add some vanilla extract, salt, and instant coffee to boost the chocolate flavor and balance out sweetness.

Hope you enjoy! :-)
