How to Make Easy Less Guilt Peanut Butter Frosted Brownies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, mash 1 ripe banana thoroughly.
- Add 1 box (15.25 oz) chocolate cake mix and 1/2 cup applesauce to the mashed banana. Mix well.
- Stir until a thick, smooth batter forms.
- Press the brownie batter evenly into the prepared 9x13 inch pan.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before frosting.
- While the brownies bake, prepare the frosting: In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup plain yogurt, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter.
- Beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
- Refrigerate the frosting for at least 30 minutes to allow it to thicken.
- Once the brownies are completely cool, spread the chilled frosting evenly over the top.
- Slice, serve, and enjoy! These brownies freeze beautifully for later enjoyment.
