Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup Butter (cold, unsalted)
• 0.5 cup Peanut butter (creamy)
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) if baking brownies from scratch, or follow the package directions if using a mix.

Step 2

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and salt.

Step 3

Cut the cold butter into small cubes and add it to the bowl with the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter, fork, or your fingertips to work the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Stir in the creamy peanut butter and vanilla extract. Continue mixing until the streusel starts to clump together but still retains that crumbly texture.

Step 5

Prepare the brownie batter of your choice and pour it into a greased or parchment-lined baking pan.

Step 6

Sprinkle the peanut butter streusel evenly over the top of the brownie batter, making sure to cover the entire surface.

Step 7

Bake the brownies according to the brownie recipe or package directions, keeping an eye on the streusel to ensure it turns golden brown but does not burn.

Step 8

Once baked, remove from the oven and allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares or rectangles. Serve and enjoy!
