How to Make Pecan Pie Brownie Bombs

PIN IT

Step 1 – Bake the Brownies

Prepare the brownie mix using water, oil, and eggs according to the box instructions. Bake in a pan and let the brownies cool completely.

Step 2 – Make the Pecan Filling

In a bowl, mix chopped pecans, caramel sauce, chocolate chips, and vanilla extract. Stir until everything is coated and sticky.

Step 3 – Crumble the Brownies

Once brownies are cooled, crumble them into a large bowl until they form fine crumbs.

Step 4 – Form the Bombs

Take a small amount of brownie crumbs and flatten in your hand. Add a small spoon of pecan filling in the center, then wrap brownie around it and roll into a ball.

Step 5 – Chill

Place brownie bombs on a tray and refrigerate for 30 minutes so they firm up.

Step 6 – Finish

Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with melted chocolate or caramel before serving.

What to Serve with Pecan Pie Brownie Bombs

These are amazing served with:

• Vanilla ice cream
• Coffee
• Hot chocolate
• Caramel drizzle
• Whipped cream
• Holiday dessert platters

They are especially perfect during fall and winter gatherings.

Tips for Making It Perfect

Make sure brownies are fully cooled before crumbling. Warm brownies will be too sticky.

If the brownie mixture feels dry, add a tablespoon of caramel sauce.

If it feels too sticky, refrigerate the mixture for 15 minutes before rolling.

Use a cookie scoop to keep all brownie bombs the same size.

You can also dip them in melted chocolate for a truffle-style dessert.

Storage Instructions

Store brownie bombs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

To freeze:

• Place in freezer container
• Freeze up to 2 months
• Thaw in refrigerator before serving

These actually taste even better the next day.
