Description
Pecan Pie Brownies combine a rich, gooey pecan pie topping with a boxed brownie mix for a delicious dessert.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (18-ounce box) fudge brownie mix (plus ingredients listed on box)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar (packed)
- 1/2 cup light corn syrup
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 cups pecan halves
Instructions
- Preheat the oven according to the brownie mix instructions. Line a 9×9-inch pan with parchment paper.
- Prepare the brownie batter as directed on the box. Pour into the prepared pan and bake for 30 minutes.
- While the brownies bake, lightly beat the eggs in a medium bowl. Add brown sugar, corn syrup, melted butter, vanilla, and sea salt. Whisk until smooth. Stir in the pecans.
- Carefully pour the pecan mixture over the hot, partially baked brownies. Gently spread the pecans evenly if needed.
- Set the oven to 325 degrees F, return the pan to the oven, and bake for 30–35 minutes, until the topping is golden and set in the center.
- Let the brownies cool completely at room temperature. Chill in the fridge for 1–2 hours for cleaner slicing.
- Remove from the pan using the parchment, slice with a sharp knife, and serve.
Notes
- Use a sharp knife for clean slices.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge.
