Peanut butter brownie

Peanut butter brownies are a deliciously rich and decadent treat that combine the intense flavors of dark chocolate and creamy peanut butter. Perfect for any occasion, these brownies are sure to satisfy any sweet tooth. Follow this simple recipe to create mouthwatering brownies that showcase the perfect blend of gooey chocolate and smooth peanut butter.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter
110g
1/2 cup dark chocolate
120g
3 eggs
150g
3/4 cup all-purpose white wheat flour
90g
2 tbsp dry cocoa powder
30g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4g
1 dash salt
1g
1/2 cup peanut butter
120g

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang to easily lift the brownies out later.
2. Melt Butter and Chocolate:
In a heatproof bowl, combine the butter and dark chocolate. Melt together over a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
3. Prepare Wet Ingredients:
In a separate large mixing bowl, beat the eggs using a whisk or electric mixer until they are light and fluffy. Add the melted chocolate-butter mixture and mix until well combined. Stir in the vanilla extract.
4. Combine Dry Ingredients:
In another bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
5. Layer Batter and Peanut Butter:
Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly. Drop spoonfuls of peanut butter over the batter layer. Then, pour the remaining brownie batter on top and spread it evenly.
6. Swirl Peanut Butter:
Use a knife or a skewer to gently swirl the peanut butter into the batter, creating a marbled effect.
7. Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
8. Cool and Serve:
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, lift them out using the parchment paper overhang, and cut into squares. Enjoy!

Tips:

- For an extra rich flavor, use high-quality dark chocolate and cocoa powder.

- To achieve a smooth and even batter, ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before mixing.

- Do not overbake the brownies; they should still be a bit fudgy in the center when you remove them from the oven.

- Swirl the peanut butter into the batter gently with a knife or toothpick to create a marbled effect.

- For a more intense peanut butter flavor, use chunky peanut butter or add chopped peanuts to the batter.

- Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting, as this will make slicing easier and neater.

Enjoy your homemade peanut butter brownies as a delightful dessert or a decadent snack. These brownies are best enjoyed slightly warm with a glass of milk or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Store any leftovers in an airtight container to retain their freshness, although they might not last long considering how delicious they are!
