Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and line an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal.
- In a heatproof bowl, combine the 1/4 cup butter, 1/3 cup dark chocolate, and 1/2 cup milk chocolate.
- Melt the mixture in the microwave or using a double boiler, stirring occasionally until smooth and fully melted. Set aside to cool slightly.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the 2/3 cup all-purpose flour, 1 tsp baking powder, and 1 tsp salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the 1/2 cup sugar and 3 eggs until well combined and slightly fluffy.
- Stir in the 1/2 tsp vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the melted chocolate mixture to the egg mixture, stirring continuously to combine.
- Gently fold in the flour mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
- In a small bowl, combine the 1/2 cup powdered sugar and 1/2 cup peanut butter. Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
- Dollop half of the peanut butter mixture over the batter in several spoonfuls.
- Repeat with the remaining brownie batter and peanut butter mixture.
- Use a knife or skewer to gently swirl the peanut butter into the batter, creating a marbled effect.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
- Once cooled, lift the brownies out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang and cut into squares.
- Serve these delicious peanut butter swirl brownies with a cold glass of milk or a scoop of ice cream. Enjoy!
Tips:
- Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before you start baking, as this will help them blend more easily.
- Melt the butter and chocolates slowly over low heat to avoid burning. Using a double boiler is often best for this.
- Mix the eggs and sugar thoroughly until the mixture is pale and fluffy for a lighter brownie texture.
- For the peanut butter swirl, drop dollops of peanut butter over the brownie batter and use a knife to create a swirl pattern.
- Don't overbake the brownies; they should have a little wobble in the center when you take them out of the oven for a fudgier texture.
- Let the brownies cool completely in the baking dish before cutting to get cleaner slices.
Your Martha's Peanut Butter Swirl Brownies should now be ready to serve! With a rich chocolate base and a delightful peanut butter swirl, these brownies are the perfect treat for any occasion. Enjoy them with a glass of milk or a scoop of ice cream for an extra indulgent experience.
