Instructions: Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease bottom of 13 x 9 x 2 inch pan. Line with foil, so that the ends of the foil extend past the ends of the pan, so that you can lift out
the baked brownies, thereby avoiding the criss-cross lines on the pan from the
efforts that guys make to cut the brownies. They have to make sure we know how strong they are!

For brownies: Combine brownie mix, fudge packet from mix, 2 eggs, water, and oil in a large bowl. Stir with spoon until well blended - about 50 strokes. Stir in pecans. Spread in pan.

For topping: Beat cream cheese in large bowl at medium speed with electric mixer until smooth. Beat in 2 eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Spread evenly over brownie mixture.

Bake at 350 F. for 45 to 50 minutes, or until edges and top are golden brown and shiny. Cool completely. Refrigerate until chilled. Cut into 48 bars.
