This is sooo good! You will love it…everyone will love it! It’s an easy way to impress your family or guests. It travels well and is perfect for BBQ’s, picnics and potluck suppers…making extra, of course.
I was looking at Christy Jordan’s Southern Plate blog (don’t you just love her?!) and saw her Triple Chocolate Brownie Pie. I wanted it! I needed it! It looked so good! It reminded me of the Brownie Pecan Pie I make. I decided to make another brownie pie, this time in a pie crust. I used the American Neufchatel Cheese I made for the cheesecake part of this pie.

Directions
Thaw, or take out,pie crust from the refrigerator. Mix brownie mix according to directions adding chocolate chips if desired. Line pie plate with crust. Pour 2/3 brownie batter.
