Peanut Butter Brownies

During the past year my friends and I have been making brownies a lot. Since we do not have the patience to use a double boiler to melt chocolate, we use a mix. About a month ago my moms friend suggested that we make brownies from scratch and ever since then I have wanted to. The other night I was home alone and was craving chocolate and peanut butter. I decided to find a brownie recipe and add peanut butter to it to satisfy my craving. I was amazed by how gooey and peanut buttery these brownies were. Whenever people came over they would all gush over the brownies. I hope you enjoy my recipe for Peanut Butter Brownies!

Ingredients:
2 sticks unsalted butter
1 pound semisweet chocolate chips
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate
3 extra-large eggs
1 tablespoons instant coffee granules
1 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/3 cup smooth peanut butter


First pre heat the oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit. Then, melt the butter, 1 pound of chocolate chips, and the unsweetened chocolate in a medium bowl over simmering water. Let the chocolate cool for 5 minutes. 


Whisk together the chocolate, eggs, instant coffee, and vanilla together. To the wet mixture add the sugar, flour, baking powder, and salt and whisk until fully combined.


Add the brownie batter to a buttered and floured 9x13 baking pan. Add the peanut butter into the mixture and use a knife to swirl the peanut butter into the brownie batter. 


Cook the brownies for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.


Let the brownies cool and enjoy!
