Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 170 grams unsalted butter
- 170 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 100 grams brown sugar, packed
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 120 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 120 grams peanut butter
- 100 grams mini chocolate peanut butter candies (e.g., Reese's Pieces or M&M's)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and grease or line a 9x9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Whisk in the granulated sugar and brown sugar until well combined.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating 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 mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly across the bottom.
Spread the peanut butter evenly over the layer of brownie batter using a spatula or back of a spoon.
Pour the remaining brownie batter on top of the peanut butter layer, carefully spreading it to cover.
Scatter the mini chocolate peanut butter candies evenly over the top of the batter for a colorful finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 28-32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
Remove from the oven and allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares.
Serve and enjoy your rich, nutty, and chocolatey E.T. Brownies!
