Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat your oven according to the instructions on your brownie mix packaging, typically around 350°F (175°C). Prepare a greased 13x9 inch pan.
  2. In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, combine sugar, light corn syrup, eggs, unsalted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk together for about 15 minutes until thickened.
  3. Prepare the brownie mix as directed. Pour it into the greased pan and spread evenly. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until edges pull away from the pan.
  4. Remove the brownie base from the oven and add the pecan filling over the top. Spread it evenly.
  5. Bake for an additional 25 to 30 minutes until the pecan topping jiggles slightly in the center.
  6. Allow brownies to cool to room temperature before slicing into generous squares.
