Best Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie with Graham Cracker Crust

Graham Cracker Pie Crust
0 Start by preparing your graham cracker crust by blending graham crackers, melted butter, and granulated sugar in a food processor until the mixture resembles wet sand.
1 Next, pour the graham cracker crumbs into your pie or tart pan and firmly press them onto the bottom and sides using the bottom of a measuring cup or glass. Place the crust in the freezer while you prepare the chocolate chip cookie dough.

3 Preheat your oven to 350°F. In a large bowl of a stand mixer and paddle attachment, cream together the sugars and butter for about 2 minutes on medium-high speed. 
5 Then, mix in the egg, yolk, and vanilla extract, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.
6 Sift in the dry ingredients and mix until just combined, being careful not to over-mix. Fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts.
7 Use your fingers to press the dough into the graham crust and sprinkle with additional chocolate chips. 
8 Optional but recommended: Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This little chill session helps all the flavors mingle and gives you an even tastier pie in the end.
9 Bake the chocolate chip cookie pie in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
10 If using a tart pan, allow the pie to cool in the pan for 20 minutes before unmolding and transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. For a pie pan, simply let it cool on a rack. Serve this easy dessert recipe warm, with a big scoop of ice cream and a drizzle of chocolate sauce.
