Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 350ðF (175ðC). Grease a 9-inch pie pan thoroughly with butter or non-stick spray.

In the top of a double boiler, melt the butter and unsweetened chocolate together over simmering water, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat.
-
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined and slightly pale.
-
Add the melted chocolate mixture to the egg mixture and stir until fully blended.
-
Gradually stir in the flour, mixing until no dry pockets remain and the batter is smooth.
-
Fold in 3/4 cup of the chopped walnuts, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
-
Spoon the batter into the prepared pie pan and spread it evenly.
-
Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of chopped walnuts over the top of the batter.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until the center is set and a toothpick inserted comes out with moist crumbs but no wet batter.
-
Allow the pie to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
