Decadent Brownie Pie: A moist brownie made in a springform pan and drizzled with caramel for the perfect potluck dessert.

Here’s something a little different to do with a brownie, put it in a spring-form pan instead of a 9×13 pan. You can dress it up with different toppings. Sprinkle with chopped mint candy either peppermint for the holidays or chopped Andes chocolate covered mints; top with fresh berries (strawberries or raspberries) or drizzle with caramel sauce. I promise that whatever topping you choose you will love how rich the chocolate flavor is in this Decadent Brownie Pie.

I just found this, and it looks amazing. Question – do you think I could replace the corn syrup with honey? Thank you!

  Hi Rhonda, As far a texture yes I think honey would work but it will change the flavor of the brownie pie.

Can I sub Hershey’s cocoa for the chocolate squares?

  Hi Rose, Chocolate squares will add moisture/liquid to the recipe. I would stick with using the cocoa.
