Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to whip up these decadent Pecan Pie Brownie Bites. Full measurements can be found at the end of this post.

For the brownie base:

• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

• 1/2 cup light brown sugar
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1/2 cup corn syrup
• 1 cup pecans, roughly chopped
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

1. Preheat the Oven
   Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a mini muffin tin by greasing it or lining it with paper liners.
2. Make the Brownie Batter
   In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and whisk until smooth.
3. Add the Dry Ingredients
   Sift in the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix, or the brownies may become dense.
4. Prepare the Pecan Pie Topping
   In a small mixing bowl, whisk together light brown sugar, melted butter, corn syrup, vanilla extract, and the chopped pecans. This will be the gooey topping for your brownie bites.
5. Assemble the Brownie Bites
   • Add a spoonful of brownie batter into each mini muffin cup until they are about 3/4 full.
   • Top each with a spoonful of the pecan pie mixture.
6. Bake
   Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are set and the topping looks bubbly and golden.
7. Cool & Serve
   Allow the brownie bites to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. Optional Garnish
   Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with a little extra caramel sauce for an extra sweet finishing touch.
