Ingredients:
1 cup unsalted butter
2 cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup chocolate chips
1/2 cup peanut butter chips
Directions:
Preheat the oven:
Preheat to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
Prepare the wet ingredients:
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Remove from the heat and stir in the granulated sugar. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Mix the dry ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
Layer the batter and peanut butter:
Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared baking dish. Soften the peanut butter in the microwave for 20-30 seconds, then spread it evenly over the brownie layer.
Add the final layer:
Pour the remaining brownie batter on top of the peanut butter layer and spread it evenly. Sprinkle chocolate chips and peanut butter chips on top.
Bake:
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Cool and Serve:
Allow the brownies to cool completely before cutting into bars. Enjoy the perfect balance of fudgy brownies and creamy peanut butter!
