Ingredients

• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar
• 2 pieces Large eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Baking powder
• 12 pieces Mini Reese's Peanut Butter Cups

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a standard 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners or lightly grease each cup with non-stick baking spray.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth. Let the mixture cool slightly.

Step 3

In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and the melted butter-chocolate mixture until fully combined.

Step 4

Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Sift together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder in a separate bowl. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, being careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the brownie batter into each prepared muffin cup, ensuring the bottom of each is evenly covered.

Step 7

Place one Mini Reese's Peanut Butter Cup in the center of each cup, pressing it gently into the batter.

Step 8

Evenly distribute the remaining batter on top of each Reese’s Cup, ensuring they are fully covered.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are set and a toothpick inserted near the edge (not the center) comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Step 10

Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
