Pecan Pie Brownies have chunks of pecan pie throughout.

The pecan pie portion of this recipe is a frozen pecan pie that is cut into chunks. Crust and all.

The brownie portion of this recipe is a homemade brownie batter made from butter, semi-sweet chocolate chips, sugar, eggs, milk, flour, and baking powder.

Tips For Making Pecan Pie Brownies

Remove the pecan pie from the freezer about two hours before baking the brownies. I use an Edwards frozen pecan pie.

Chop up the whole pie into bite-sized pieces, crust and all. The pieces of crust give an interesting flavor, kind of like graham crackers. If you just want the flavor of the pecan pie filling, you can not use the crust.

Storage

Can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container for 3 days or in the refrigerator for 5 days.
