Pecan Pie Brownies

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease bottom and sides of 9-inch square pan or a glass Pyrex with butter. It will make 12 large brownies, 1 large skillet or if you go the messy route 2 mini skillet bowls.

In a saucepan, melt baking chocolate, chocolate chips and butter over low heat, stirring frequently; remove from heat. Cool slightly and set aside.

In large bowl, beat sugar, vanilla and eggs at medium speed. On low speed, beat in the chocolate mixture. Slowly beat in flour just until all ingredients are blended together. Bake for 25 minutes or till toothpick is clean.

While baking make your pecan pie filling topping! Combine in a medium saucepan the butter, brown sugar, honey, heavy cream and vanilla extract. Stir at medium heat for about 2 minutes and combine in the chopped pecans. Stir pecans into filling for about 1 additional minute till pecans are covered and nice and gooey.

Take brownies out and pour pecan pie filling on top. Make sure your brownies are pretty baked before doing this and also make sure your dish is big enough. As you can see we were in a rush and our pecan filling caved into the brownies! Still yummy though!

Put back in the oven and bake for another 25 minutes! Cool completely, about 1 hour before cutting!
