Ingredients for Pecan Pie Brownies:

• 1 cup white sugar
• ¾ cup + 2 tbsp cocoa powder
• ½ tsp kosher salt
• 10 tbsp melted butter, hot
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 large eggs
• ½ cup all-purpose flour

Pecan Pie Filling

How to Make Pecan Pie Brownies:

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F, then line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper leaving some excess hanging on all sides, and grease it with oil. In a mixing bowl, add the white sugar, cocoa powder, Kosher salt, and hot melted butter, then beat everything together or whisk them until combined, add the vanilla extract and 1 egg, and continue to mix until incorporated.

Step 2

Add the second egg and keep on whisking on a high speed until smooth and thick, then add the flour, and mix on a low speed until incorporated. Scrape the sides of the bowl and give it a final mix, then pour the batter into the prepared pan, and tap it gently on the surface to level it out. Put it in the preheated oven to bake for about 20 minutes, then transfer it to a wire cooling rack, and let it cool down while preparing the filling. At this point, increase the temperature of your oven to 350°F.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, add the brown sugar, salt, vanilla, corn syrup, eggs, and melted salted butter, then give them a good mix, add the pecans, and keep mixing until evenly incorporated. Pour it over the brownie base, then spread it evenly, and gently tap it on the counter to level it out. Put the brownie back in the oven and bake for 1 hour until almost fully set, then let it cool down completely for about 30 minutes, and then cover it with plastic wrap. Put it in the fridge to chill, then lift the brownies out of the pan, and cut them into 2-inch squares. Serve and enjoy!
