Turtle-like delicious taste! A great recipe, pretty easy to make, and definitely delicious to eat! Really rich and delicious. (I think so far we are up to a 3 delicious count in this description!) Be sure to watch them close and don't over or under bake them. Underbaking = delicious gooey mess! The original recipe was for an 8x8 pan, but I doubled it because I was making these for a larger crowd. Original recipe found on verybestbaking.com website.

How To Make pecan and caramel layered brownies

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 350. Line a 9x13" baking dish with foil so that it hangs over the edge of the pan (you will use it for lifting the brownies out when ready to cut them). Spray with non-stick baking spray.
  • Step 2
    Cream together the sugar, brown sugar and butter. Add 4 eggs, one at a time, combining well after each one. Add vanilla. Gradually add in the flour and cocoa.
  • Step 3
    Reserve 1 1/2 cups of the batter. Pour remaining batter in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle pecans and white morsel chips over batter. Drizzle caramel topping on top. Place the reserved 1 1/2 cups of batter back into mixing bowl. Add 2 remaining eggs and beat well. Stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips. Spread over the caramel sauce.
  • Step 4
    Bake for 30-35 minutes until toothpick inserted in middle comes out clean. Let cool completely on cooling rack. Lift brownies out of pan by the edges of the foil. Peel foil edges down and cut into bars.
