Bourbon Pecan Brownies
Ingredients
  • 1 cup sweet cream butter
  • 4 ounces unsweetened baking chocolate
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons bourbon
  • 1 teaspoon Madagascar bourbon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
Instructions
1
First, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (or 175 degrees Celsius).
2
Next, lubricate a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
3
Then, melt butter and chocolate in the top of a double boiler over gently bubbling water. Stir constantly with a rubber spatula, making sure to scrape the sides of the bowl every few minutes, until chocolate has fully melted, approximately 5 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely, taking around 10-15 minutes.
4
Simultaneously, mix together flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl using a sifting motion.
5
While the chocolate cools down, use an electric mixer or hand whisk to beat eggs in a separate bowl until they become almost pale. Combine bourbon and vanilla extract, then gradually add sugar until well incorporated. Stir in the chocolate-butter mixture, followed by the flour mixture until combined, ensuring to scrape down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Fold in pecans lastly.
6
Pour the brownie mixture into the prepared baking dish and bake in a preheated oven until the edges pull away from the sides of the pan, approximately 30-35 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
