Nestle' Tollhouse Pie... An American Comfort food


Toll House Chocolate Chip Pie - incredible! It has the classic flavors – a sweet, buttery batter with chocolate chips and walnuts – but in pie form!

Last night we were able to celebrate my dad's 69 birthday! Instead of making a cake I decided to make a pie. I didn't plan ahead like I normally do so I decided to see what I had in stock. I had all of the staple ingredients for a Nestle tollhouse pie! It's like taking America's favorite cookie and placing it into a pie. You mix all of the ingredients and then pour it into the pie crust. After baking it the ingredients split into several layers of ooey gooey goodness that is out of this world! After you have enjoyed this pie you can enjoy the leftovers by heating up a slice for 10 seconds in the microwave.
