How to Make Peanut Butter Candy Bar Brownies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, crush the peanut butter sandwich cookies into fine crumbs. Press the crumbs firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to create the crust.
  3. In a separate large bowl, cream together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. In a medium 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. Stir in the chopped candy bar and optional peanut butter chips.
  8. Pour the batter over the cookie crumb crust and spread evenly.
  9. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  10. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
