Baking with Imperial Sugar
My recipe of the day is for bourbon fudge brownies with spiced pecans which are made using sponsor product from Imperial Sugar. They graciously sent me several bags of their granulated sugar for use in recipe development.
These rich fudgy brownies are perfect served with a glass of ice cold milk or piled on a plate with ice cream, whipped cream, more nuts, and copious amounts of caramel and chocolate syrups for a decadent sundae treat.
Besides the prizes you can win in the #Giveaway (enter towards the bottom of the page), Imperial is also having a contest on their page for those who want to enter (you can do so once per day). Click to Enter:

Bourbon Fudge Brownies with Spiced Pecans

Bourbon Fudge Brownies with Spiced Pecans
Ingredients
For Brownies:
- 10 tablespoons unsalted butter melted and cooled to room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons Kentucky bourbon whiskey
- 1-1/4 cups Imperial granulated sugar
- 1 cup Dutch processed cocoa
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 10 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup chopped spiced candied pecans
- 16 spiced candied pecan halves
For Optional Sundaes:
- Dark Chocolate Ice Cream I used Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Therapy
- Caramel Syrup or ice cream topping
- Dark Chocolate syrup or ice cream topping
- Additional spiced candied pecans or candied pecans
- Whipped Cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325F.
- Line the bottom and sides of an 8x8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper and spray lightly with baker's release spray. I find a spritz directly on the bottom of the pan first will help the paper stay put.
- Whisk together the melted butter, vanilla, eggs and bourbon.
- Separately stir together the salt, flour, cocoa and sugar.
- Stir the dry mix into the wet and continue stirring until smooth.
- Fold in the chopped pecans and spread the batter into the parchment lined pan.
- Place the pecan halves on top of the batter, evenly spaced 4x4.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick can be inserted and removed without wet batter.
- Cool the brownies completely in the pan on a wire rack.
- When cool, lift out the parchment and use a knife dipped in hot water to cleanly slice into squares.
- Serve brownies with ice cream, syrups, whipped cream and more pecans for a tasty sundae.
- Store remaining brownies in an airtight container.
