Preparation

Step 1

Place a rack in the center of the oven, and preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prick the pie crust a few times on the bottom with a fork. Set aside.

Place the brownie mix, eggs, and melted butter in a large bowl, and stir with a wooden spoon until smooth, about 50 strokes. Pour the batter into the pie crust, and scatter the nuts on top, if desired. Place the pan in the oven.

Bake the pie until the top puffs up, the nuts have lightly browned, and the edges are firm, about 30 minutes. Remove the pie to a rack to cool at least 30 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with ice cream.
