Description

Fudgy, rich chocolate brownies swirled with creamy peanut butter for the ultimate indulgence. Perfect for dessert lovers and peanut butter fans alike!


Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup cocoa powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter

Instructions

  • Preheat Oven: Preheat to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
  • Make Brownie Batter: In a bowl, whisk melted butter and sugar until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla, mixing well. Stir in flour, cocoa powder, and salt until just combined.
  • Pour Batter: Spread the brownie batter evenly into the prepared pan.
  • Add Peanut Butter Swirls: Drop spoonfuls of peanut butter over the brownie batter. Use a knife to swirl the peanut butter into the batter for a marbled effect.
  • Bake: Bake for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs. Cool completely in the pan before slicing.
  • Serve: Slice into squares and enjoy!

Notes

  • For chunky texture, use crunchy peanut butter instead of creamy.
  • Add chocolate chips or chopped peanuts for extra decadence.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
