Ingredients

• 0.5 cup Unsalted Butter
• 1 cup Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips
• 1 cup Granulated Sugar
• 0.5 cup Brown Sugar
• 3 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 0.75 cup All-purpose Flour
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Creamy Peanut Butter
• 0.25 cup Powdered Sugar
• 0.5 cup Peanut Butter Chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking pan. Line the pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.

Step 2

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

Step 3

Whisk in the granulated sugar and brown sugar until combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture just until combined. Do not overmix.

Step 5

Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix the creamy peanut butter and powdered sugar until smooth. Drop dollops of the peanut butter mixture over the batter in the pan, using about half of the peanut butter mixture.

Step 7

Sprinkle half of the peanut butter chips over the dollops. Use a knife or skewer to gently swirl the peanut butter into the brownie batter.

Step 8

Spread the remaining brownie batter over the swirled layer, smoothing it out carefully. Repeat the dolloping and swirling process with the remaining peanut butter mixture and peanut butter chips.

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 (not wet batter).

Step 10

Let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Lift them out using the parchment paper overhang, and cut into squares to serve.
