Gooey Pecan Pie Brownie Bombs

Ingredients:
For the brownies:
1 box brownie mix (plus ingredients listed on the box: eggs, oil, water) 🎂
1/2 cup pecans, chopped 🌰
For the pecan pie filling:
1/2 cup brown sugar 🍬
1/4 cup corn syrup 🍯
1 tbsp unsalted butter 🧈
1 large egg 🥚
1/2 tsp vanilla extract 🌿
1/2 cup chopped pecans 🌰
For the chocolate coating:
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips 🍫
1 tbsp coconut oil or vegetable oil 🛢️
Instructions:
1️⃣ Prepare the brownies: Follow the instructions on the box to make the brownie batter. Stir in the chopped pecans. Bake the brownies according to package directions, then let them cool completely. Once cooled, crumble the brownies into small pieces and set aside. 🍫🌰
2️⃣ Make the pecan pie filling: In a small saucepan, mix together the brown sugar, corn syrup, butter, and egg over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and starts to bubble. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and chopped pecans. Let the filling cool for about 10 minutes. 🧈🍯🌰
3️⃣ Assemble the brownie bombs: Take about a tablespoon of crumbled brownies and flatten it in your hand. Place a small spoonful of pecan pie filling in the center, then wrap the brownie around it to form a ball. Repeat until all the mixture is used. 🎳🍫
4️⃣ Chill the brownie bombs: Place the brownie bombs on a lined baking sheet and refrigerate for 20-30 minutes to firm up. ❄️⏳
5️⃣ Melt the chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil (or vegetable oil). Microwave in 20-30 second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted and smooth. 🍫
6️⃣ Coat the brownie bombs: Dip each brownie bomb into the melted chocolate, making sure it’s fully coated. Place them back on the lined baking sheet to set. For extra flair, sprinkle some chopped pecans on top while the chocolate is still wet. ❄️🍫🌰
7️⃣ Serve: Let the chocolate set completely before serving. Enjoy the gooey, decadent combination of pecan pie and brownie in every bite! 🍽️🍫
