Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350.

In a saucepan, melt 1 1/2 cups of chocolate chips, butter, and water over low heat until the chocolate is melted. Be careful not to scorch the chocolate.
Remove from heat and stir in cocoa powder. Set aside.
In a bowl, add eggs and sugar. Beat for 3-4 minutes until thickened.
Stir in vanilla extract.

Fold in half of the egg mixture into the chocolate mixture.

Stir gently until incorporated and then fold in the other half.

Line a 8 X 8 inch baking pan with non-stick baking paper.
Pour brownie mixture into the pan and smooth out the batter.
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until edges are firm and the middle is set. The middle may still be a little soft and slightly jiggly.

Remove from oven and let cool completely.
Once cooled, place in the refrigerator for 2-4 hours to set the brownies.
Prepare the chocolate spread, by heating the heavy cream in the microwave for about 30 seconds.

Add the other 1/2 cup of chocolate chips to the heavy cream and allow them to melt.
Stir until creamy. Spread on top of cold brownies. Top with pecans bits and m&m’s if desired.

Cut and serve.
Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
