Chocolate Lava Brownie Pie

You know those lava cakes that come out warm and gooey in the center? (my friend in high school used to go to Chili’s just to get theirs) You know, the ones where you wade through the cake topped with cold vanilla bean ice cream to get to the yummy chocolate lava in the middle? Imagine if you could eat just the lava part with a warm buttery crust — well look no further because now, YOU CAN! These pies (plural, because the recipes makes 2 pies) are so incredibly delicious I literally couldn’t stop eating them. These pies — are they brownies? Are the hot fudge? Are they chocolate lava? The bottom line? They’re amazing and incredibly easy to make. You HAVE to let me know if you make them.
