Tollbouse cookie pie

Sometimes you just need something sweet. 

Sometimes you just need something sweet and completely not healthy.

 Sometimes you just need a tollhouse cookie pie.



I know this is a running blog, and I am supposed to inspire you with healthy recipes, but I also believe life is about balance.  Work hard play hard right?  In this case play hard eat hard.  It's okay to put down the wheat bread for a croissant.  And sometimes its okay to load an apple pie crust with cookie dough.  

It was a friend birthday Saturday and his cake request was a tollhouse cookie pie.  I am not a baker.   I can't even pretend I am a baker.  I destroy everything I bake... I burn it..... I dont measure the ingredients. It is usually a disaster.  

When I found this 8 ingredient recipe, I felt empowered and pulled out my neglected mixing bowl.  Mix all ingredient, pour in pie shell, bake for an hour.  It is trickier than it sounds.  

BUT I DID IT.  

This was absolutely delicious-  Still ooey gooey in the middle, and paired with vanilla ice cream it tasted like a cookie sandwich.  


How do you make this recipe lower in fat?
