Preheat the Oven:
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and greasing a 9×13-inch baking pan.
Prepare the Brownie Batter:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, eggs, vegetable oil, and water. Mix until the ingredients are thoroughly blended. Pour the brownie batter into the greased pan and bake for 20-25 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick about 2 inches from the edge; it should come out clean.
Create the Pecan Pie Topping:
While the brownies are baking, whisk together the light corn syrup, brown sugar, eggs, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt in a separate bowl until smooth. Fold in the chopped pecans.
Add the Pecan Topping:
Once the brownies are baked, remove them from the oven and evenly pour the pecan pie mixture over the top.
Final Bake:
Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes. The pecan topping should be set and golden when done.
Cool and Serve:
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting them into squares. Enjoy your delicious dessert!
