Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a 9x13 baking dish with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the brownie mix according to package directions and set aside.
  3. Add the butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, and white sugar to a large mixing bowl and beat well until smooth and creamy.
  4. Beat in the egg and vanilla.
  5. Add the flour, baking soda, and salt to the peanut butter mixture and mix until well combined.
  6. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  7. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking dish and then crumble half of the cookie dough evenly over the top of the brownie batter. Reserve remaining cookie dough for another use. See notes.
  8. Bake for 25 minutes or until a tester comes out mostly clean 2 inches from the edge of the pan.
  9. Let cool for at least 2 hours to allow brownies to continue firming up before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • This recipe makes a full batch of peanut butter cookie dough, but you’ll only need half of it for this recipe. The remaining dough can be portioned out with a medium cookie scoop at baked at 350 degrees for 8 minutes to make perfectly soft peanut butter cookies. Dough may also be frozen for another date. Portion onto a cookie sheet, freezer for one hour, transfer to a bag, and then freeze until ready to bake. Bake at 350 degrees straight from the freezer for 9-10 minutes.
  • We like to use the box brownie mix that is labeled family size or 9x13 size for a thicker brownie base. 
  • Bake times will vary a bit based on the brownie recipe used. Bake until a tester inserted 1 inch from the edge comes out with moist crumbs.
