DOUBLE CHOCOLATE WALNUT PECAN BROWNIES



Double Chocolate Walnut Pecan Brownies image

From Dr. Gerard Bertolino, who was doing locum tenens back home in Louisiana. My mom didn't eat brownies, but ate his! Now in TN, my family watches the SUGAR, so I substituted Splenda for the sugar. Nothing went to (waist) LOL!, Even the crumbs were gathered and put on top of vanilla ice cream!

Categories     Dessert

Time 55m

Yield 15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 ounces chocolate squares
1 cup butter
2 cups granulated sugar (I use Splenda and cut back to 1 1/2C)
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup flour
1 1/2 cups walnuts or 1 1/2 cups pecans, coarsely chopped, put aside 1/2 cup
1 (6 ounce) bag chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Grease and flour 13" x 9" pan.
  • Melt the chocolate squares and butter in saucepan, then remove from heat.
  • Let cool so Splenda sugar won't get hard and lump and eggs won't cook when added.
  • After adding sugar, gradually add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • Stir in the vanilla and mix.
  • Stir in the flour gradually.
  • Mix until well blended and add 1 cup of chopped nuts.
  • Mix and spread into greased pan.
  • Combine the remaining 1/2 cup nuts and the chocolate chips, spread over the top of the brownie batter.
  • Depending on the size you cut to how many or less you'll have, so I'm guessing on servings!

DOUBLE CHOCOLATE PECAN BROWNIES



Double Chocolate Pecan Brownies image

I don't remember where I first clipped this recipe, but it has served me well for a long time. This was my children's favorite brownie when they were little. The recipe makes a large batch, but they'll be eaten quickly! If you do have some leftovers, they can be frozen. They also are very rich. Have a tall glass of cold milk nearby! I prefer milk chocolate chips, but semisweet work, too.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The chocolate is the star of this recipe, so it's important to use a good-quality chocolate that you enjoy the taste of. A dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70% is ideal.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the brownies tough, so be careful not to overmix it. Just mix until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached: If the toothpick comes out clean, the brownies are overbaked. If the toothpick comes out with a lot of batter attached, the brownies are underbaked.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them: This will help to prevent them from falling apart.
  • Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days: You can also freeze the brownies for up to 2 months.

Conclusion:

These double chocolate pecan brownies are a delicious and decadent treat that are perfect for any occasion. They're gooey, chocolatey, and full of pecans. They're sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give these brownies a try.
