Ingredients
24 Servings
- 95 g all-purpose flour
- 170 g chocolate chips
- 240 g creamy peanut butter
- 3 eggs
- 200 g granulated sugar
- 240 g powdered sugar
- 2 g salt
- 170 g semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 15 g shortening
- 115 g unsalted butter
- 30 g unsweetened cocoa powder
- 5 ml vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth.
Step 3
Stir in the granulated sugar until fully combined. Then add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Step 5
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the brownies cool completely.
Step 6
In a medium bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter and powdered sugar. Spread this mixture evenly over the cooled brownies.
Step 7
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips and shortening together in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth. Pour over the peanut butter layer and spread evenly.
Step 8
Refrigerate the brownies for at least 1 hour, or until the chocolate topping is set. Cut into squares and serve.
