Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1.5 cups granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup brown sugar (packed)
• 3 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 12 pieces Reese's Peanut Butter Cups
• 0.25 cup peanut butter (optional for drizzle)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper.

Step 2

Melt the butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until smooth. Let it cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 4

Slowly pour the melted chocolate mixture into the sugar and egg mixture, stirring constantly to blend.

Step 5

Sift the flour, cocoa powder, and salt into the wet ingredients, and gently fold until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Chop the Reese's Peanut Butter Cups into quarters and gently fold half of them into the batter.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 8

Sprinkle the remaining chopped Reese's on top of the batter for a decorative and extra-flavorful finish.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 28-32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs sticking to it. Do not overbake.

Step 10

Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares.

Step 11

Optional: Melt the peanut butter in the microwave for 15-20 seconds and drizzle it over the cooled brownies for an added touch.
