Chipper Pie

This pie got its name not only from one of its ingredients but also from the mood it will instantly put you in when you take a bite☺ If you want to cheer someone up (even yourself), make this pie - the smell as it's baking alone is aromatherapy for the soul, I promise!

Ingredients

1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/4 cup white granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
1/3 cup flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat oven to 325°F. In a mixing bowl, beat butter and sugars until combined.  Add eggs and vanilla and beat until light and fluffy.  Mix in flour and salt just until incorporated.  Stir in chocolate chips.  Spread evenly into unbaked pie shell. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes or until knife inserted halfway between edge and center comes out clean.
