How to Make Peanut Butter Chocolate Swirl Brownies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x9 inch baking pan.
  2. Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and ½ cup milk.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Divide the batter in half.
  7. To one half, stir in 1 cup creamy peanut butter and 1 cup peanut butter chips.
  8. To the other half, stir in 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips and 1 cup milk chocolate chips.
  9. Spoon chocolate batter into the prepared pan in eight mounds, creating a checkerboard pattern.
  10. Spoon seven mounds of peanut butter batter between the chocolate mounds.
  11. Using a knife or toothpick, swirl the batters together to create a marble effect.
  12. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  13. Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
