Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 10 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup creamy peanut butter
- 0.5 cup peanut butter chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Remove from heat and stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until smooth and fully melted. Let the mixture cool for 5 minutes.
Whisk in the granulated sugar and light brown sugar into the chocolate mixture until combined.
Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the peanut butter chips gently to distribute them throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Warm the creamy peanut butter in the microwave for 15-20 seconds to soften it. Drop spoonfuls of peanut butter over the brownie batter and use a knife or skewer to create swirls for a paisley effect.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs (not wet batter).
Remove from the oven and let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Use the parchment paper overhang to lift the brownies out of the pan. Slice into 12 squares and serve. Enjoy!
