- 3 egg
- 1 cup flour
- ¾ cup cocoa powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp baking powder
- 10 oz peanut butter chips
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 3 tbsp butter
- ¼ cup milk
- 2 cups powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F and coat a 9" x 13" baking dish with cooking spray.
- Cream the butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl with an electric hand mixer or stand mixer.
- Add the eggs one at a time and combine after each addition.

- Add to the butter sugar mixture and combine.
- Stir the peanut butter chips into the batter with a spatula.
- Spread the brownie batter into the baking dish and place in the oven for 45 minutes.
- To prepare the brownie frosting while the brownies are baking, add the chocolate chips to a small saucepan on the stove over low-medium heat.
- As the chocolate starts to melt, add the butter and stir to combine.
- Add the milk, continue to whisk consistently until smooth and creamy.
- Add the powdered sugar and whisk to combine.
- Make sure to continue whisking the sauce so that the chocolate does not burn or stick to the bottom of the pan.
- After whisking for 1-2 minutes, the chocolate frosting should be smooth and creamy, at that time remove it from the heat and let stand until the brownies come out of the oven.
- Let the brownies cool for 15 minutes before topping with the chocolate frosting.
- Allow the frosting to cool on top of the brownies for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
Notes
- Cooling time: for perfectly clean sliced brownies, allow the brownies to cool for 2 hours before slicing.
- Storing: baked brownies can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container for 3-4 days.
