The pan of pecan pie brownies will feed a lot of people because they are so rich and you won’t need as big of a piece. Truly. 

If you’re looking for a dessert that will hit it out of the park, win a competition, or top them all, pecan brownies will do it.

The easy pecan pie brownies will be the star of the show.

They are sinfully rich and decadent so a pan of this pecan brownie recipe will go a long way.

I love the combination of chocolate and pecan pie because you get the best of both worlds rolled up into one delicious fudge brownie pecan bar. Just think gooey pecan pie brownies.

With a brownie layer and a pecan pie layer on top, it’s one of those classic desserts you will want to make every holiday season.

Plus, these are super easy to make. I made the brownies from scratch, but you can get a brownie box mix if you’re even shorter on time.

Start with the brownie mix. You can either make the brownies from scratch (click here for the recipe) or start with a boxed mix.

Bake them for about 25 minutes. They will still be a little gooey on the inside. You aren’t cooking the full amount because you will cook them again once you add the pecan layer.

I’ve also added the brownie recipe to the bottom of this post. You most likely have the ingredients at home. 

It’s one of those easy brownie recipes that everyone loves.

How To Make Pecan Pie Brownies

Once the brownies bake in the 9-inch by 13-inch baking pan, set aside and get started on the pecan pie mixture topping. 

Add the corn syrup to a medium bowl. 

Next, add the brown sugar. 

Add the eggs and vanilla to the bowl. 

Pour the melted butter into the bowl and mix everything together.

The melted butter always brings out the smell of the other ingredients and it’s such a great scent to add to the kitchen.

Who needs candles when you have all of this deliciousness?

Finally, add the pecans to the bowl and stir until they are completely covered. Mmm…

Spread the pecan pie filling mixture over the brownies.

Be gentle as you spread because you can tear the brownies that are still jiggly in the middle of the pan–speaking from experience here.

Although, they will still turn out delicious and no one will ever know. 

Bake the brownies again for about 25 minutes or until the top starts to candy a little. 

The pecan pie brownies cook up so delish. I love the corners since they bake up a little more chewy. 

The recipe is the perfect dessert for Christmas parties, potlucks, or even Thanksgiving dessert. The best part? It’s a simple recipe that everyone will love.
