Ingredients:
Bottom Layer
1 box (18oz) Brownie Mix
1 Egg
½ cup Unsalted Butter, melted
Water (if needed)
Middle Layer
3 Eggs
⅓ cup Light Brown Sugar
¼ cup Sugar
1 cup Light Corn Syrup
¼ cup Salted Butter, melted
2 tsp Vanilla Extract
2 cups Medium Pecan Pieces
Top Layer
8 oz Cream Cheese
3 Eggs
1 ½ tsp Vanilla Extract
½ cup Unsalted Butter, melted and slightly cooled
3 ⅓ cup Powder Sugar
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 325F. Spray a 9x13 pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- Combine brownie mix, butter, and egg. Mixture should be thick. If the mixture is not coming together add 1 tbsp of water at a time until everything is mixed well, just make sure the mixture is still thick. Pat the mixture into the bottom of your 9x13 pan.
- To make the middle layer, combine eggs, sugar, brown sugar, corn syrup, vanilla, and butter in a mixing bowl, mixing until well blended. Stir in pecans and spread over the brownie layer in the 9x13 pan.
- For the top layer, combine the cream cheese, eggs, vanilla, and butter. Once combined, start adding in the powdered sugar. I added 1 cup at a time. Pour mixture over the top of the other two layers.
- Bake for 55-75 minutes. Should be jiggly in the center but the top layer should be firm to the touch.
- Let cool. Sever and enjoy!
