If you're not into Nutter Butter cookies, you could use a layer of peanut butter cups instead.
Ingredients
- 11 tbsp. unsalted butter
- 1/2 c. cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 c. sugar
- 4 eggs
- 2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 3/4 c. all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 package Nutter Butter cookies
- 1/2 c. peanut butter
Instructions
- Make the Brownies: Preheat the oven to 350 °F, and grease the bottom and sides of a 9-inch square baking pan with butter or cooking spray.
- Melt the butter over low heat in a medium saucepan. As soon as it's melted, remove from heat and let cool for 3-4 minutes. Stir in the cocoa powder and sugar until combined. Gradually mix in the eggs and vanilla extract, until the batter is glossy.
- Combine the flour and salt, then slowly add them to the brownie batter, stirring just enough to combine. Pour half of the brownie batter into the 9-inch by 9-inch pan. Top the batter with a layer of Nutter Butter cookies.
- Warm peanut butter in the microwave for 20 seconds. Stir, then drizzle half atop Nutter Butters. Top with remaining batter. Plop spoonfuls of peanut butter onto the batter, then use a spoon to gently swirl the two together, creating a marbleized effect. Bake for 28-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the brownie comes out with just a few crumbs (and maybe melted peanut butter—but not liquid brownie batter).
- Make the Peanut Butter Drizzle: Heat peanut butter in the microwave for 20 seconds, stirring to form a smooth sauce. Drizzle atop cooled brownies and top with chopped peanut butter cups.
