Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1.5 cups granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup smooth peanut butter
- 3 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Once melted, stir in the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and smooth peanut butter until smooth and combined. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and vanilla extract. Slowly add the cooled butter and peanut butter mixture to the eggs, whisking constantly to avoid cooking the eggs.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Step 5
Pour half of the peanut butter batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly using a spatula.
Step 6
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and heavy cream. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is melted and smooth. This creates the chocolate filling.
Step 7
Spread the melted chocolate mixture evenly over the first layer of peanut butter batter in the pan.
Step 8
Carefully spoon the remaining peanut butter batter on top of the chocolate layer and gently spread it to cover the chocolate completely.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (but not wet batter).
Step 10
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares. Serve and enjoy!
