Ingredients
- 6 Tbsp unsalted butter

Instructions

Notes
- For a Gooey Brownie Pie with a twist, consider adding a layer of your favorite nuts, a swirl of caramel, or a dollop of peanut butter into the batter before baking.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent dessert.
- Store leftovers covered at room temperature for up to 3 days. Reheat briefly in the microwave for a gooey texture.
