Brownie Layer:
1 box brownie mix (and ingredients listed on the box: eggs, oil, and water)
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
Pecan Pie Filling:
1 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup corn syrup
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
Assembly and Topping:
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Extra chopped pecans for garnish
Instructions
Brownie Batter Preparation:
Start by heating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Mix the brownie ingredients as directed on the package, adding an extra 1/4 cup of flour to thicken the batter.
Creating the Pecan Pie Filling:
In a bowl, mix the chopped pecans, brown sugar, corn syrup, melted butter, vanilla, and eggs until glossy and smooth, ensuring the sugar is fully dissolved.
Assembling the Bombs:
Grease a mini muffin pan. Place about a tablespoon of brownie batter into each cup, followed by a teaspoon of pecan pie filling. Top with another tablespoon of brownie batter to seal the filling inside.
Baking Time:
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the bombs are set and a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the center.
Preparing the Topping:
As the bombs cool, melt the chocolate chips with vegetable oil in the microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring until smooth.
Finishing Touches:
Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cooled brownie bombs and sprinkle with extra pecans. Let the chocolate set before serving.
