How to Make Chocolate Peanut Butter Brownies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a square 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, melt the butter and unsweetened chocolate together. Stir until smooth.
  3. Add the granulated sugar and brown sugar to the melted chocolate mixture. Beat until well combined.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. In a small bowl, combine the peanut butter and powdered sugar. Mix until smooth.
  8. Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared pan. Dollop spoonfuls of the peanut butter mixture over the batter. Swirl the peanut butter mixture into the brownie batter using a knife or toothpick.
  9. Pour the remaining brownie batter over the peanut butter swirl. Spread evenly.
  10. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached.
  11. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting and serving.
