Easy Recipes
If you're looking for an easy dessert recipe, you'll love the Peanut Butter Brownie Recipe. It can be made in steps, to make it more convenient. I often make just the brownie recipe, freezing it for a few days, until I can put it all together. Adding the next two layers is a breeze.
I've also made the whole recipe, cutting into squares, freezing afterward. The cut brownies can keep in the freezer for weeks, and still taste fresh. A perfect fix when you're craving that peanut butter-chocolate combination. And a big hit at parties!
Peanut Butter Brownies
Peanut Butter and Chocolate make a great combination! Almost like Peanut Butter Cups, only we like them more! These can be stored in the freezer too, if you want to get ready for a special occasion ahead of time. Serves 10-15.
Ingredients:
- 1 stick butter
- 1 TBS. water
- 3/4 c. sugar
- 1 1/3 c. chocolate chips
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1/4 tsp. baking soda
- 1 c. flour
- 2 eggs
- 1 stick butter
- 1 1/4 c. peanut butter
- 1 c. confectioner's sugar
- 1 c. chocolate chips
FOR BROWNIES:
Microwave 1-2 min. in ceramic bowl: > 1 stick butter > 1 TBS. water > 3/4 c. sugar
Add, mixing in until melted: > 1 1/3 c. chocolate chips
Next, add the chocolate mix to the following in mixer bowl: > 1 tsp. vanilla > 1/4 tsp. salt > 1/4 tsp. baking soda > 1 c. flour > 2 eggs
Mix all the above in mixer, 3-5 min. on high. Pour into 9 x 13" pan, lined with foil for easy cleanup. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 min. Let cool completely in refrigerator, then turn out of pan, pulling foil off bottom. Put back in pan, spreading the following on when brownies have cooled (several hours).
FOR PEANUT BUTTER FILLING:
Microwave 1 min. in glass bowl: > 1 stick butter
Add to bowl: > 1 1/4 c. peanut butter
Mix the above well, then add: > 1 c. confectioner's sugar
Mix again; this will be a thick mixture. Spread on brownies and chill, 1/2 hr. or so.
