Description
These pecan pie brownie bombs blend rich cocoa brownies and gooey pecan filling into the ultimate bite-sized chocolate dessert.
Ingredients
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup corn syrup
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon melted butter
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
Whisk melted butter and sugar in a bowl until smooth.
Add eggs and vanilla extract and whisk until combined.
Stir in cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder until fully incorporated to make the brownie batter.
In a separate bowl, mix brown sugar, corn syrup, egg, vanilla extract, melted butter, and chopped pecans to make the pecan pie filling.
Spoon 1 tablespoon of brownie batter into each muffin well and press slightly to form a base.
Add 1 tablespoon of pecan pie filling on top, then cover with more brownie batter, leaving a small edge at the top.
Bake for 18 to 22 minutes until tops are set and crackly with a slight jiggle in the center.
Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
Notes
Use silicone molds for easy removal. Substitute maple syrup for corn syrup if preferred. Refrigerate the filling before assembly to make layering easier.
