A brand new recipe for the weekly team meeting at work.  I told them they’re my guinea pigs to try new recipes out on and they don’t seem to mind.  This is another recipe that I pulled out of a magazine somewhere along the way and now can’t remember where.

1 (19 – 21 oz) package fudge brownie mix

1 (10 – 12 oz) package white baking pieces

1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

1/2 cup pecan pieces (I used walnuts)

1/4 cup butter, melted

3 tablespoons hot water

2 cups sifted powdered sugar

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 teaspoon vanilla

3/4 cup pecan pieces (or walnuts)

1  Preheat oven to 350.  Grease bottom only of 13 x 9 x 2″ baking pan.  Prepare brownie mix according to package directions.  Stir in half of the white chocolate chips, all of the semisweet chocolate chips and 1/2 cup of the pecans.  Spread batter in pan.

2  Bake about 30 minutes or until center is set.  Sprinkle with remaining white chocolate chips and bake for 1 minute more.  Cool in pan.

3  For frosting, combine melted butter and hot water then stir in powdered sugar, cocoa powder and vanilla.  Beat by hand until smooth.  Drizzle over top of brownies.  Sprinkle with 3/4 cup nuts.  Cool about 1 1/2 hours or until frosting is
