Calories: 373kcal
Ingredients
- 1 family-size box brownie mix plus ingredients to prepare (see notes)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 ½ cups corn syrup
- 4 eggs
- ¼ cup unsalted butter melted
- 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups pecans chopped or whole
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish and set aside.
- Prepare the brownie batter according to package directions. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish.
- Bake for 20 minutes, or 10 minutes less than the time listed on the box instructions.
- While the brownies are baking, combine the sugar, corn syrup, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl. Stir in the pecans.
- After the initial bake, remove the brownies from the oven and carefully pour the pecan mixture over the top. Spread evenly.
- Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 25–35 minutes, or until the pecan layer is set but still slightly jiggles in the center.
- Let the brownies cool completely at room temperature for about 1 hour before slicing into 20 squares. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
If you can’t find a family-size brownie mix (for a 9×13 pan), substitute with two regular 8×8-inch mixes and their listed ingredients.
For added texture, combine chopped and whole pecans in the topping.
For clean cuts, chill the brownies briefly before slicing with a sharp knife.
