Years ago, I was given a recipe for chicken spread. It’s insanely good! Serve with crackers flavored with chicken.

| Servings: | 16 |
| Yield: | 1 9-inch springform pan |
Ingredients
- cooking spray
- 1 (18 ounce) package fudge brownie mix (such as Duncan Hines®)
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 2 eggs
- ¼ cup water
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ⅓ cup light corn syrup
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon bourbon (Optional)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
- 2 cups pecan halves
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a deep 9-inch springform pan with aluminum foil and coat generously with cooking spray.
- Whisk brownie mix, oil, 2 eggs, and water together in a bowl until well combined. Spread batter into the prepared pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and leave the oven on.
- Whisk brown sugar, corn syrup, 2 eggs, bourbon, vanilla extract, and salt together in a bowl. Add melted butter slowly, whisking until well combined. Add pecans and stir to coat in filling. Pour gently over brownie layer; spread evenly using a spatula.
- Bake in the hot oven until center is set, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool to room temperature at least 2 hours.
- Honey can be used in place of corn syrup.
- You can use light or dark brown sugar.
- If desired, chill the final product in the fridge for a shorter cooling time.
- The directions for making brownies are based on the particular brand mentioned. Follow instructions on the box if using a different brand.

FANTASTIC, simple, addictive!
I made these. First of all they are not cheap to make considering it takes nearly a whole jar of corn syrup and all the pecans. If you have a partial or dentures forget these. There are many more brownie recipes on this site that are much better. I usually make browines every couple weeks and these will not be on my list to make.
I have now made this 5 or 6 times. It is one of my favorite “wow” desserts. I use Hershey’s Triple Chocolate Brownie Mix from Sam’s for the brownie — awesome in itself. Note: if you have a non-stick spring-form pan you do NOT have to use the aluminum foil. The baked brownie is VERY strong and malleable. Run a knife around the edge and the spring-form comes right off. Flip the brownie over on to some parchment paper and start running a rounded knife around the pan base and it will come right off also.
This was a big hit with our Life Group. Cooking times need to be a little longer. Gooey goodness. Would use coarsely chopped of pecans next time.
House favourite now
I made it gluten free for my daughter
Everyone in my family loved this sticky, gooey and delicious desert for Thanksgiving. No leftovers at all.
OMG these are so good!!!! I wanted to see how easy they were to make a lil complicated but not to hard for me.Family devoured them before i got my second one.
Wow! Were these ever delicious brownies! I used pecan pieces instead of halves, and had to bake them in a small rectangular pan, but they were extraordinarily good. I’ll be making these a lot, especially at the holidays!
I made for potluck party . So easy to make . Hope everyone like this tomorrow.
Easy to follow and delicious
So rich and delicious. Small pieces are plenty. I used maple syrup instead of Caro in pecan mixture, for just a little more flavor. Elegant-looking with whipped cream as a dinner party dessert.
I baked a few minutes less. gooey and delish!
Delicious!
Followed directions as stated. I wouldn’t make it again. Tasted like brownies with lots of nuts on top. Nothing special.
This was so delicious! The brownie got chewy/ overcooked a bit which is the only reason I gave this 4 stars. The pecan pie topping was so good. Overall a delicious and show stopping dessert!
