Heat oven to 350º. Line 8 " square pan with parchment paper, let 2 " hang over on all four sides.

In small saucepan, melt that choc and butter, over medium heat. Remove from heat, transfer to a large bowl and whisk in 1 c sugar, then the eggs. Stir in the flour and the salt. Fold in the choc. chips.

Spread the batter into the prepared pan. Bake until set and a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs attached. 25-30 minutes. Let cool completely in the pan.

Once the brownies are cool, make the topping. In a medium pan, combine the remaining 3/4 c brown sugar and water. Heat over medium heat (do not stir), swirling the pan occasionally, until the sugar had dissolved. Increase the heat and boil until the sugar is a deep caramel color (do not stir). Immediately remove from heat and stir in the heavy cream. (it will bubble up),then add the pecans.

Pour the mixture evenly over the cooled brownies and sprinkle with the sea salt. Let cool completely. When ready to serve, using the overhangs, transfer the brownies to a cutting board and cut into 25 squares.
