These pecan pie brownies are just the thing if you’ve ever been eating pecan pie and thought, “this is great, but I wish that crust was a brownie.” Your wish is now a reality. I was sure this experiment was not going to work, but it worked really, really well, and these fudgy brownies with a pecan pie layer baked on top are incredibly delicious.
Making a true pecan pie brownie is harder than it might seem. It’s simple to make a pan of brownies and add a thin layer of sticky pecans to the top, but that’s really more of a brownie with pecan pie frosting. It’s also easy to add a nice thick layer of pecan pie filling to the top of a pan of brownies, except that makes it very challenging to get nice clean, square cuts. Despite that, I tried anyway. Things started off pretty well, but about halfway through the bake I was convinced my attempt was going to end in dry, over-baked failure.
Of course, we never let the food win, so I just kept baking, and baking, until the top was finally set. As I waited for the brownies to chill, I prepared myself for the inevitable disappointment, but somehow, someway, they ended up being perfect. I can’t ever remember being more surprised at how a recipe turned out, which is why I really do hope you give these a try soon. Enjoy!
