To embark on this baking adventure, gather these essential ingredients:
1 cup (226g) butter
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar (220g)
1/2 cup (50g) cocoa powder
1 tsp salt (preferably kosher)
1/4 cup + 2 tbsp (150g) all-purpose flour
3 eggs
1 tbsp (15ml) vanilla extract
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
Preparation:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
Melting the Chocolate:
Melt 1 cup of butter in a small pot over medium-low heat until fully melted.
Add 1/2 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips to the melted butter and whisk until smooth and combined. Set aside to cool slightly.
Preparing Dry Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, sift together 1/4 cup + 2 tbsp of all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup cocoa powder, and 1 tsp salt to remove lumps and ensure even distribution.
Combining Wet Ingredients:
Once the chocolate-butter mixture has cooled, transfer it to a large bowl.
Add 1 cup granulated sugar and 1 cup firmly packed brown sugar. Sprinkle the brown sugar to avoid clumps.
Crack in 3 eggs and add 1 tbsp vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Mixing Batter:
Gently fold the sifted dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Avoid overmixing to maintain a fudgy texture.
Adding Peanut Butter Swirl:
Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly.
Drop spoonfuls of creamy peanut butter on top of the batter. Use a knife or spatula to swirl the peanut butter through the batter for a marbled effect.
Baking:
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the center of the brownies no longer jiggles when gently shaken.
Cooling and Serving:
Once baked, remove the brownies from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan.
Lift the cooled brownies out using the parchment paper, cut into squares, and savor the decadent combination of fudgy chocolate and creamy peanut butter.
Conclusion:
Indulge in the ultimate treat of peanut butter brownies, where every bite is a celebration of rich flavors and irresistible textures. Visit our for more delightful dessert recipes that elevate your baking game to new heights.
