Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a 20x20 cm (8x8 inch) baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy brownie removal.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together granulated sugar, light brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Gradually pour in the melted chocolate-butter mixture and stir until well combined.
Sift in the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula, being careful not to overmix.
In a separate bowl, mix the creamy peanut butter and powdered sugar until it forms a smooth, spreadable mixture.
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth it into an even layer.
Drop dollops of the peanut butter mixture over the brownie batter, then use a knife or skewer to swirl the peanut butter into the batter to create a marbled effect.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs (do not overbake).
Remove the brownies from the oven and allow them to cool completely in the pan set on a wire rack.
Once cooled, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the brownies out of the pan. Cut into 16 squares and serve. Enjoy your Peanut Butter Fantasy Brownies!
