Mmmmm.....brownies.....mmmMmmm crunchy peanut butter...
My buddy needed to make brownies for a competition at work, so she came over and we tried a couple of different recipes. We used box mixes and then added different stuff (like caramel and peanut butter) to them. The peanut butter ones were by far the best.
Today, I thought I would try a made from scratch version. If you are feelin' extra lazy, just get a brownie fudge box mix and do the last peanut butter steps shown here.
Here's What You Need:
2 eggs
1 teaspoon of vanilla
3/4 cup of sugar
1 stick or 1/2 cup of butter, melted
2/3 cup of all purpose flour
3/4 cup of ground cocoa
1/4 teaspoon of salt
1/4 teaspoon of baking powder
1/3 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 tablespoons of crunchy peanut butter, melted
Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees. Crack eggs and beat by hand.
Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla.
Add 3/4 cup of sugar and mix. Mix'um Mix'un Mix'um.
Take out a stick of butter and melt in the microwave for about 40 seconds. Let cool while you get together the dry ingredients.
To a separate bowl, add 2/3 cup of all purpose flour.
Add 3/4 cup of ground cocoa.
And 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of baking powder.
Fork or whisk everything together.
Add butter and dry ingredients to egg-sugar-vanilla mixture.
Mix everything together well.
Add 1/3 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips and mix.
Pour into a greased pan.
Take 2 tablespoons of crunchy peanut butter and microwave for 30 seconds to melt.
Top drops of melted peanut butter on brownies.
Using a toothpick swirl the top to make it look all purdy and stuff. Bake for 20 minutes at 400 degrees.
Let cool and enjoy.
These were amazing! Thank you thank you thank you!
