Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and spray a 9×13 baking pan with pan spray and line with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Whisk together butter, sugar, and unsweetened cocoa powder in a medium bowl until well combined. Add in the eggs and vanilla and whisk until combined.
- Sift the flour, salt, baking powder, and cinnamon into another bowl. Gently mix the flour mixture into the butter mixture until they are just combined. Gently stir in ½ cup chocolate chips and ½ cup chopped pecans.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 30-35 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Let the pan cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes, then poke holes all over with the back of a wooden spoon. Pour 1/2 cup caramel over brownies and spread into holes with a spatula. Refrigerate the brownies for one hour or freeze them for 30 minutes to let the caramel set. Meanwhile, prepare the chocolate frosting.
- In a medium bowl, combine the butter, cocoa, corn syrup, and vanilla. Mix using an electric hand mixer. Add the powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons of milk and beat until smooth. Add additional milk if needed to reach spreading consistency.
- Once the caramel has set, frost the brownies with chocolate frosting. Sprinkle evenly with the remaining chopped pecans and remaining mini chocolate chips. Drizzle with 1/4 cup caramel sauce.
- You can serve immediately or refrigerate to allow the frosting to set and make cutting easier.
