Ingredients
Peanut Butter Filling
- 1 ½ cups creamy all natural peanut butter
- ⅔ cup powdered sugar
Brownies
- ½ cup melted butter
- 1 ¼ cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 eggs
- 3 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ cup flour all purpose or gluten free flour
- ⅓ cup creamy all natural peanut butter to swirl
Instructions
- First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line an 8 inch by 8 inch square pan with parchment paper.
- Make peanut butter filling. Add creamy peanut butter and powdered sugar to a bowl. Stir to combine. Mixture will be thick. Set aside.
- In another bowl, add melted butter and chocolate chips. Stir until chocolate is completely melted and creamy. If needed, microwave quickly to melt.
- In a clean mixing bowl, add sugar and eggs. Whisk vigorously for 2 minutes.
- Then, pour in melted chocolate mixture. Stir to combine.
- Add in cocoa powder, vanilla and flour. Stir to combine.
- Pour half of the brownie batter into the lined pan.
- Drop the peanut butter filling in dollops on top. Use your hands to spread out into an even layer. This does not have to look perfect.
- Then, pour remaining brownie batter on top.
- Pour ⅓ cup creamy peanut butter all over the top. Use a knife or toothpick to swirl.
- Bake for 28 to 30 minutes or until middle looks set. The brownies should no longer jiggle.
- Finally, remove from oven. Allow brownies to fully cool before slicing into.
Notes
- The peanut butter filling will be pretty thick. You can use a spoon to stir or add it a stand mixer to combine.
- Stir melted butter and chocolate chips until fully creamy and melted. If needed, quickly microwave.
- Vigorously whisk eggs and sugar.
- See photos above for how to assemble brownies and peanut butter layer.
- Do not over bake! Mine were perfect at 28 minutes.
- These brownies are creamy and gooey. Allow them to fully cool before slicing into.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
- Freeze for up to 1 month.
