Pecan Pie Brownies

I LOVE this time of year. Everywhere you look there are all sorts of amazing holiday recipes and I can get sucked into Pinterest for hours looking at Thanksgiving recipes. The problem is when it comes to making the Thanksgiving dinner menu everyone has their favorite traditional Thanksgiving side or Thanksgiving dessert and no one wants to give them up so we can try something new. I’m just as guilty as everyone else. I mean it wouldn’t be Thanksgiving without my grandma’s Broccoli Casserole! This year I’ve found at least one recipe that everyone is excited to try. These rich, fudgy Pecan Pie Brownies combine two Thanksgiving classics into one decadent Thanksgiving dessert.

Pecan Pie is a must on Thanksgiving. I’ve tried switching it up and my Pecan Pie Cake Roll was a hit so this year I thought I’d see if I could do it again. These Pecan Pie Brownies take everyone’s favorite part of the pecan pie, the gooey, nutty filling, and bake it right on top of rich chocolate brownies. I’m gonna be honest, while everyone else in the family can’t live without pecan pie it’s not my favorite dessert, but these brownies were out of this world good! The combination of chocolate and pecan pie filling is so much better than plain old pecan pie.

It’s a simple recipe. I used a boxed brownie mix (one that makes a 13-inch x 9-inch pan of brownies) to keep things simple but if you have a favorite brownie recipe you can use that. I made the pecan filling using the same recipe my mom uses for pecan pie. I mixed up the brownies, poured them into my brownie pan, and baked them for 20 minutes. While they baked I mixed together the ingredients for my pecan pie filling. After 20 minutes I removed the partially cooked brownies from the oven and poured the pecan pie filling over them. Then everything went back into the oven and baked for another 30-40 minutes.

I’ve got to tell you the kitchen smelled pretty amazing and when those Pecan Pie Brownies came out of the oven it took all of my willpower not to dive right in.It was worth the wait though and when the brownies had cooled I cut a few slices and all of my taste testers agreed that they were awesome enough to make it onto this year’s Thanksgiving dessert menu!
