SUPER PEANUT BUTTER FILLED BROWNIES



Super Peanut Butter Filled Brownies image

My most-requested dessert recipe. Moist brownie bottom topped with a thick peanut butter filling and topped off with a chocolate glaze. Please watch the brownies carefully and remove from the oven when toothpick comes out with moist crumbs clinging to it. If your toothpick comes out completely clean then they are overbaked and you will end up with a "cake-like" brownie. Glass pyrex baking pans have yielded the best results in my experience. Note: This recipe doubles beautifully!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality peanut butter: The type of peanut butter you use will greatly affect the flavor of your brownies. Choose a natural peanut butter that is made with 100% peanuts and no added sugar or oils.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in tough, dry brownies. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached: Overbaking the brownies will result in dry, crumbly brownies.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them: This will help to prevent them from falling apart.
