🍫 Brownie Pecan Pie Recipe

✅ Ingredients

For the Brownie Layer:

• 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter

• 1 cup granulated sugar

• 2 large eggs

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

• 1/4 tsp salt

• 1/4 tsp baking powder

For the Pecan Pie Layer:

• 3/4 cup light corn syrup (or maple syrup for a twist)

• 1/2 cup packed brown sugar

• 3 large eggs

• 2 tbsp melted butter

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• 1 1/2 cups pecan halves or pieces

🧑‍🍳 Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch pie pan or line with parchment.

2. Make the Brownie Base:

   • In a saucepan, melt the butter over low heat.

   • Remove from heat, then stir in sugar, eggs, and vanilla.

   • Add cocoa, flour, salt, and baking powder; mix until smooth.

   • Pour into the prepared pie pan and spread evenly.

3. Prepare the Pecan Topping:

   • In a bowl, whisk together corn syrup, brown sugar, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla.

   • Stir in pecans.

4. Assemble the Pie:

   • Gently pour the pecan mixture over the brownie layer. Spread pecans evenly.

5. Bake:

   • Bake for 45–50 minutes, until the center is mostly set (a slight jiggle is okay).

   • If edges brown too quickly, tent with foil after 30 minutes.

6. Cool:

   • Let cool completely before slicing to allow layers to set.
