Ingredients

Brownies

Pecan topping

3 cups pecans, chopped
¼ cup butter melted
½ cup granulated sugar
½ cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350° and grease a 9 x 9 pan or line with parchment paper. Set aside.

Brownies

Melt butter in a saucepan over medium low heat.
In a large bowl add chocolate chips and melted butter and stir until smooth.
Whisk in cocoa powder. Let cool slightly.
Stir in sugar, brown sugar and vanilla.
Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each additional egg.
Mix in flour until just combined.
Bake in the oven for 22 minutes or until almost fully cooked through.
Remove from the oven and top with pecan filling.

Pecan Pie Topping

Mix melted butter, sugar, vanilla, salt, and eggs together until thoroughly combined.
Mix in chopped pecans.
Return to the oven for 15–17 or until pecan filling is set.

Notes

Let the chocolate mixture cool slightly before adding the eggs.
Don’t overmix the batter once you add the flour.
Use good-quality chocolate chips for the richest flavor.
Allow the brownies to cool completely so the pecan topping has time to set.
Line your baking pan with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
