Peanut Butter Delight


Peanut Butter Delight (Yum Yum Brownies)

Makes 12

So I re-did this recipe, and this time actually measured what I did. I liked the first batch better though. I think if I make it again I won't press the centers in, and won't use icing sugar.

1/2 cup peanut butter
3 tbsp of each: white, brown and icing sugar
1/4 cup milk for the peanut butter mix.
Cook in a pot for 8-10 min on low, stirring constantly so it doesn't burn.
It should reach a toothpaste consistancy. Remove from heat and continue to mix for 5 min (so the oils etc don't seperate and it remains smooth. If you want, press with 2 or 3 fingers in the middle of each brownie about 2/3 of the way with a greased bag to create a bit of a depression for the peanut butter mixture to sit in.
Use 2 teaspoons to put on peanut butter mixture, then lightly press the chocolate square on top.
The rest of the instuctions are below.

 
These were the previous instructions:
3 heaping tbsp Skippy’s natural peanut butter

2 tbsp brown sugar

2 tbsp white sugar

¼ cup lactose free milk

1 70-90% coco chocolate bar

1 pkg brownie mix


pre-heat oven to 325

I consider myself good at baking, but for some reason I can never get popcorn, kraft dinner or brownies from scratch to work out so for this recipe you can either make the brownie mix from scratch or from a box mix. You can also replace the peanut butter mix and chocolate with Reese’s peanut butter cups, just put a thin layer of brownie mix over top the peanut butter cups.

Mix up brownie mix and ingredients it requires, and put spoonfuls in a greased muffin pan, they should be about half full.

In a small saucepan on low, mix together peanut butter, milk, brown and white sugar, and stir constantly (to avoid burning) until it is smooth and the sugar has melted. Put about a tsp of the peanut butter mix on top of each brownie, then break up the chocolate bar into 1-2 cm squares and place the squares on the very top.

Place in the oven and bake for 26-28 min (time and temp may vary depending on your stove)

Let cool for approx 20 min. Enjoy your gooey peanut butter goodness!
