  • 3 eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup all purpose flour

  4. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt
  5. Blend the rest of the chocolate chips and the pecans in the batter
  6. Pour the batter in a 9×9 inch pan lined with parchment paper and make sure the batter is spread evenly
  7. Drizzle the salted caramel on top
  8. Bake 20 minutes and let the brownies cool in the pan
  9. Enjoy with extra salted caramel on top πŸ™‚

Notes

I personally like to add my pecans on top of the brownies rather than mix them in completely. If adding them on top, slightly push them in the batter.Β 

Do not bake the brownies for longer than 20 minutes! They will look a little underdone but they will continue to bake in the pan once out of the oven. If you bake them longer, they will be more cakey than goey.Β
