Ingredients

Chocolate Crust:

1 ½ cups All purpose Flour
¾ cup unsweetened Cocoa powder
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup cold butter cut into small chunks

Pecan topping:

1 ½ cups pecans
10 ounces chocolate chips
1/2 cup butter
1 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a 9x9 baking dish by lining it with aluminum foil and spraying it with cooking spray.
In a food processor, combine the flour, cocoa powder, powdered sugar and salt. Pulse until combined. And in the cold butter pieces and pulse again until the dough comes together.
Press the dough into the bottom of the 9x9 inch pan. Sprinkle the pecans over the crust and then the chocolate chips.
In a medium sized saucepan, melt together the butter, brown sugar, cream, vanilla, over medium heat. Whisk until smooth and the sugar is dissolved.
Bake for 25 minutes. Let cool completely before cutting in squares.
