Ingredients
  

For the Brownie Base
  • 1 box Brownie Mix A store-bought mix saves time and ensures a consistent result.
  • 2 large Eggs Essential for moisture and binding; no need for substitutes unless going vegan.
  • 1/2 cup Butter Adds decadent richness; use margarine for a dairy-free alternative.
For the Pecan Topping
  • 1 cup Sugar Sweetens the topping; feel free to reduce for a less sweet treat.
  • 1/2 cup Corn Syrup Creates that beloved gooey texture; substitute with honey or maple syrup if needed.
  • 1 cup Pecans The star of the topping, providing crunch and flavor; walnuts or almonds can be used instead.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Elevates the overall flavor; opt for pure vanilla for a true taste experience.

Equipment

  • 9x13-inch baking dish
  • mixing bowls

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Pecan Pie Brownies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Prepare the brownie mix according to the package instructions, mixing in the eggs and softened butter until smooth.
  3. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking dish and bake for approximately 20 minutes.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, corn syrup, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth, then fold in the chopped pecans.
  5. Pour the pecan mixture over the partially baked brownie layer and spread evenly.
  6. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 25 to 35 minutes until the pecan topping is set but still has a slight jiggle in the center.
  7. Allow cooling for about 1 hour in the pan before slicing into squares and serving.
