Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
2
In a double boiler, gently melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips over low heat, stirring continuously until fully melted and smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, flour, and salt. Whisk together until thoroughly mixed.
4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla extract until well combined. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, using an electric mixer at medium speed until the batter is smooth and creamy.
5
Pour the melted chocolate into the batter and mix until fully incorporated.
6
Pour the combined batter into the prepared 9-inch deep-dish pie shell, leaving a little room at the top as it may rise during baking.
7
Bake on the middle oven rack for 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 25 minutes. The pie is ready when the top is crisp and a knife inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached.

Once baked, remove from the oven and allow the pie to cool completely. For best results, refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
