Description

Indulge in the rich and decadent fusion of a classic brownie and a pecan pie with this irresistible Brownie Pecan Pie recipe. Perfect for any occasion, this dessert combines a fudgy brownie base with a crunchy pecan topping, creating a delightful treat for chocolate and nut lovers alike.


Ingredients

Scale

Pie Crust:

  • 1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust

Brownie Filling:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups pecan halves or chopped pecans


Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish and crimp the edges. Set aside.
  2. Melt Butter and Chocolate: In a small saucepan, melt the butter and chocolate chips over low heat, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool.
  3. Prepare Brownie Filling: In a large bowl, whisk granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla, and salt. Slowly add the melted chocolate mixture while whisking. Stir in flour, then fold in pecans.
  4. Bake: Pour the brownie filling into the pie crust. Bake for 40–45 minutes until set. Cover edges with foil if browning too quickly.
  5. Cool and Serve: Let the pie cool on a wire rack before slicing. Serve at room temperature or slightly warm with whipped cream or ice cream.

Notes

  • Use chopped pecans for a more uniform texture or pecan halves for a classic look.
  • The pie can be made a day ahead and stored at room temperature.
