Units
Scale
- 1 box brownie mix (prepared according to package instructions)
- 1 unbaked pie crust
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- 1/2 cup corn syrup
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat Oven
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 2: Prepare Brownie Layer
- Mix the brownie batter according to the package instructions.
- Pour the brownie batter into the unbaked pie crust, spreading it evenly.
Step 3: Make the Pecan Pie Topping
- In a medium bowl, combine chopped pecans, corn syrup, sugar, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until fully blended.
Step 4: Assemble the Pie
- Gently pour the pecan mixture over the brownie batter, spreading it evenly across the top.
Step 5: Bake
- Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 45–50 minutes, or until the center is set and the crust is golden brown.

Step 6: Cool and Serve

Notes
- Brownie Mix Tip: Choose a fudge-style brownie mix for the richest flavor.
- Pecan Mixture: Stir the pecan topping gently to avoid sinking it too deeply into the brownie batter.
- Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
- Serving Idea: Serve with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
