Instructions

To Make the Pecan Pie Topping:

  • Place the brown sugar, corn syrup, cornstarch, yolks, cream, and bourbon in a small pot, and whisk together.  
  • Place the pot over medium-high heat, and continue to stir until the mixture comes to a boil.
  • Turn the heat down to medium and continue to cook, stirring, for 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture becomes quite thick.
  • Remove from the heat and stir in the butter and vanilla.
  • Fold in the pecans, and transfer the mixture to a heat-safe vessel.  Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the topping, and allow it to cool completely.

To Make the Brownie Bites:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F, and mist a mini-muffin tin with non-stick spray.
  • Place the sugar, cocoa, butter, and salt in a large bowl.  Heat the mixture (either in the microwave or over a double-boiler), until the butter is melted and the mixture is very warm to the touch.  Stir until well combined.
  • Add in the egg, stirring vigorously.
  • Mix in the flour, and fold in the chocolate chips.  Divide the batter equally between the 12 wells of a mini-muffin tin.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the brownie bites are set around the edges but still a little soft in the middle.
  • Cool completely, remove from the pan, and top with about 2 tablespoons of Pecan Pie Topping.
