Why choose between brownies and pie when you can smash them together into one gloriously gooey dessert?

A buttery, unsweetened chocolate brownie batter gets spread into a pie pan and baked until just firm. Then comes the real magic: a blanket of melted caramels and cream that bubbles into sticky, golden perfection.

Chopped pecans and chocolate chips scattered on top add crunch and extra richness to every warm, fudgy wedge.

Cut it into slices, drop a scoop of vanilla ice cream on each one, and try not to eat the whole pan standing at the counter.

Pro Tips

  • Use real caramel candy squares, not caramel sauce. They melt thicker and cling to the brownie instead of sliding off.
  • Let the pie stand for at least 30 minutes before slicing. The caramel needs time to set or you will have a beautiful, sticky mess.
  • Toasting the pecans before sprinkling them on adds a deeper nutty flavor and extra snap.
