I'm always on the look out for a good brownie recipe. I like my brownies to be dark, moist and rich. This brownie pie ticks all three boxes. As an added bonus it is also full of wonderful toasted pecans and it has a sneaky layer of marshmallow hiding under the lush chocolate icing. I am so in love with this brownie pie. I have made it three times in the CC now and when I am not making it, I can't stop thinking about it. It really is sensational. I hope you make it and love it as much as I do.

Pecans can be substituted with walnuts if you like.
To toast your nuts, place them on a baking tray, nicely spread out. Place them in the preheated oven for 5 -7 minutes or until fragrant.
