Ingredients

For the Brownie Layer:

  • cooking spray

  • 1 (18 ounce) package fudge brownie mix (such as Duncan Hines®)

  • ½ cup vegetable oil

  • 2 eggs

  • ¼ cup water

For the Pecan Pie Layer:

  • ½ cup brown sugar

  • ⅓ cup light corn syrup

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 tablespoon bourbon (Optional)

  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

  • ½ teaspoon sea salt

  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly

  • 2 cups pecan halves

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a deep 9-inch springform pan with aluminum foil and coat generously with cooking spray.

  2. Whisk brownie mix, oil, 2 eggs, and water together in a bowl until well combined. Spread batter into the prepared pan.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and leave the oven on.

  4. Whisk brown sugar, corn syrup, 2 eggs, bourbon, vanilla extract, and salt together in a bowl. Add melted butter slowly, whisking until well combined. Add pecans and stir to coat in filling. Pour gently over brownie layer; spread evenly using a spatula.

  5. Bake in the hot oven until center is set, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool to room temperature at least 2 hours.
