Pecan Pie Brownies

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease 13x9" pan and set aside. Melt butter in saucepan over medium heat, then stir in flour until smooth. Stir in brown sugar, corn syrup and 2 eggs until well blended. Cook over medium heat 3-5 minutes, stirring constantly, until bubbly and smooth. Remove saucepan from heat and stir in vanilla and pecans.

Prepare brownies, either from mix or from scratch, and spread in prepared pan. Spoon pecan mixture evenly over top. Bake brownies at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until toothpick inserted 2 inches from side of pan comes out almost clean. Do NOT overbake these brownies, or the topping will be too hard.

Place brownies on wire rack and sprinkle with chocolate chips. Let stand 4-5 minutes to melt chips; swirl chips with tip of knife. Cool completely on a wire rack. Store brownies, tightly covered, at room temperature. Makes 36 brownies
