Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1.25 cups granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup brown sugar (packed)
• 3 units large eggs
• 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup cocoa powder (unsweetened)
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 cup pretzels (crushed lightly)
• 1 cup potato chips (broken into bite-size pieces)
• 0.75 cup peanut butter cups (chopped)
• 0.25 teaspoons sea salt (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and 1 cup of the chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until smooth. Allow to cool slightly.

Step 3

Stir the granulated sugar and brown sugar into the melted chocolate mixture until well combined.

Step 4

Whisk in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract until the mixture is glossy and smooth.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, taking care not to overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the remaining 1/2 cup of chocolate chips, then pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly.

Step 7

Sprinkle the top of the brownie batter with the crushed pretzels, potato chips, and chopped peanut butter cups, pressing them gently into the batter.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 28-32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs (not wet batter).

Step 9

Remove the pan from the oven and immediately sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt for an added pop of flavor.

Step 10

Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before using the parchment paper to lift them out and cut them into 12 squares. Serve and enjoy!
