Equipment

  • Measuring Spoons
  • Measuring Cups
  • 8"x8" Baking Pan

Ingredients
  

Chocolate Layer

  • ½ Cup Unsalted butter melted
  • 1 Cup Granulated sugar
  • 2 Large eggs
  • 1½ tsp. Vanilla extract
  • ½ Cup All-purpose flour
  • ½ Cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/8 tsp. Salt

Peanut Butter Layer

  • 1/3 Cup Creamy peanut butter
  • 2 T Unsalted butter melted
  • 1/3 Cup Granulated sugar
  • ¼ Cup Packed brown sugar
  • 1 Large egg
  • ½ tsp. Vanilla extract
  • ½ Cup All-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp. Baking powder
  • 1/8 tsp. Salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and line an 8” x 8” pan with parchment paper, or spray the pan with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Make the chocolate brownie batter by pouring the melted butter into a large bowl with the granulated sugar. Stir to combine and then add the eggs and vanilla extract.
  • Add the flour, cocoa powder, and salt to the bowl. Gently fold in the dry ingredients. Do not over mix the batter.
  • Mix the ingredients for the peanut butter brownie layer, by pouring the melted butter into a separate bowl with the brown sugar, granulated sugar and peanut butter. Stir until creamy and smooth.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the bowl and stir just until combined.
  • Spread the peanut butter layer on the bottom of the pan and top it with the chocolate brownie layer, spreading the batter for both layers out evenly.
  • Bake for 22 minutes. Brownies will still be soft and gooey, but will finish setting while they cool.
