Ingredients
Brownies
- 18 ounces box brownie mix (18 or 19 ounce) box, plus ingredients listed on box directions
Pecan Topping
- ¼ cup unsalted butter melted
- ⅔ cup brown sugar 134 grams
- ⅓ cup light corn syrup
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 cups pecans roughly chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line the bottom and sides of a 9x13” baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
- Mix the brownie mix according to package directions. Spread the prepared brownie mix evenly into the parchment lined baking pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the top is starting to set and no wet batter is visible.
- While the brownies are baking, whisk together the melted butter, sugar, corn syrup, eggs, vanilla and salt in a large bowl. Fold in the pecans ensuring they are evenly covered.
- Once the brownies have baked for 20-25 minutes pour the pecan mixture evenly over the top. Return the brownies to the oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes or until the topping is set and no longer ‘jiggly’.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely before slicing and serving.
Notes
Storage:
- To Store: Store your brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
- To Freeze: To freeze the brownies, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap or foil and place them in an airtight container. Brownies can be stored in the freezer for up to two months. Allow them to defrost at room temperature.
- Feel free to use your favorite brownie recipe to make homemade brownies from scratch.
- Don’t overmix your brownie batter or you will end up with hard brownies.
- Make sure the brownies are completely cool before cutting them into squares.
