Toll House Chocolate Chip Pie
This toll house pie has all of the charm, flavor, and sweet gooeyness of a warm chocolate chip cookie.
I need to thank you all for the outpouring of love I have received since I lost my mom. The messages, emails, and comments from both friends and strangers has blown me away. I am truly touched.
I’m still having a hard time, understandably, but life moves on. My husband and boys sustain me, and creating recipes for all of you keeps me moving forward. Taking long walks in the warm sunshine and eating ice cream straight from the carton help too.
I’ve had this toll house chocolate chip pie recipe on my blog for a long time, and both the photos and wording of the recipe needed some serious updating. And I had a huge craving for a slice (or three), so here we are!
This pie is pretty much one big gooey chocolate chip cookie baked into a flaky pie crust. It’s amazing. And also a cinch to make! It takes just minutes to prepare, especially if you use a store-bought pie crust. But if you have a few extra minutes to make your own (and it’s well worth the effort), this is my favorite fool-proof recipe.
It’s best to serve slices of this toll house pie warm, with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, or both. A drizzle of chocolate syrup is a fabulous addition too.
Get ready to swoon with every single bite!
Pies are meant to be shared with others, it’s one of the things I love about them. So slice up this toll house chocolate chip pie and share it with those you love, and count your lucky stars that you are able to do so.

Hi! I am super glad to "meet" you! I love knowing more local food bloggers. Cute blog!
Oh, I know that this has to be good because it is similar to a pizookie but on crust. Your pie looks amazing! Wow.
The second and third picture made me swoon. Wish I could just reach into my screen and grab that pie.. T^T
i know that restaurant! and that pie is amazing. i'll have to try the homemade version asap!
What is the restaurant? Looks delicious!
The Dodo in Salt Lake City. Such a great place!
and with this post, i've met my weekly quota for food porn. 🙂
This looks unbelievable! I just might be trying this out. Will link up to you and let you know. What a brilliant idea and surprisingly something I've never come across before! Yum!
It's in the oven as I type. The boyfriend doesn't like nuts so a replaced the walnuts with broken up oreos. Shall be interesting!
This is a family favorite of mine and requested by our friends anytime we are having a gathering of any kind! My mom found the recipe, years ago, on the back of the Nestle Chocolate Chips bag. What a treasure! I leave out the walnuts. And, this is the first time I have seen Vanilla as part of the recipe. I'm sure it's good that way, but if you don't have vanilla on hand, just know that it's perfectly fine without it! ENJOY!!!
I do love Toll house cookies now I am going to have to find this and have more of a look around at your other recipes thank you.
I’ve been making this for years, ever since I found the recipe & made it for my father in law for a christmas present. he loved pies of any kind. I’ve added to it in my own way. I’m not crazy about walnuts, so I’ve used pecans, almonds, or hazel nuts instead. I’ve also been known to add coconut shavings, & flavored chocolate chips for the holidays to mine. like peppermint, vanilla or butterscotch chips in place of or additionally to the chocolate chips. everytime I make it I do a little something different to it. I’ve never had a bad pie yet. I just wanted to add this to say go ahead & change it up if you want to. it doesn’t have to be exactly like the original recipe. have fun with this one. I do.
This is one of my favorite recipes that I have from my Mom from back in 1986. She wrote it out and gave it to me and I taped it in one of the cookbooks my son sold in grade school. I just looked it up this past week! It is SO wonderful!
Very impressive pictures! I prefer the pie without walnuts as well, but it’s all about personal preference with this easy dessert! Thank you for sharing!
This looks absolutely amazing, I can’t wait to try it, anything Tollhouse has to be good!
ohhhhhhhh my goodness. this pie looks like perfection! beautiful pictures, too. 🙂
HI this looks amazing and I will make it tomorrow, I have had it and it is every bit as delish as she says, I have a tip for the chips, I always learned and found that is your shake the chips in flour before adding to cheesecake or a recipe they do not sink. If you like them disbursed throughout the pie – try that.
Excellent tip!
This pie looks incredible!! Love the idea of serving it with vanilla ice cream.
This pie looks like heaven. Beautiful!!
Hey annalise sory for your loss,this pie looks delish you write up very nice thanks for sharing and keep going.
I made this for Thanksgiving along with your buttermilk crust recipe and it was, predictably, amazing! Your recipes never let me down – thank you!
I have been making this pie for my son’s birthday dessert for 30 years. He still wants it every year.
