Yummy Beyond Belief Peanut Butter Chocolate Chunk Brownies Recipes

PEANUT BUTTER CHOCOLATE CHIP BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Generously grease& flour an 8" square baking pan.
• Cream butter using an electric mixer.
• Add peanut butter and beat until blended, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a spatula as needed.
• Beat in brown sugar.
• Beat in 1 egg at a time, then add the vanilla.
• In another bowl, sift together the flour, salt, and baking powder.
• Add the flour mixture to the peanut butter mixture and beat until blended.
• Using a wooden spoon,stir in the chocolate chips.
• Spread evenly into the prepared pan and bake about 37-55 minutes, or until top is lightly browned all over and no longer shiny, and a toothpick poked in the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs stuck to it (as opposed to wet and goopy batter); check early - the earlier you pull them out of the oven, the more moist they will be.
• Let cool before cutting; they should be like moist, fudgey brownies in texture and they will firm up when they are fully cooled.

TRIPLE CHOCOLATE CHUNK PEANUT BUTTER BROWNIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Line 9-inch square pan with foil, allowing some to hang over edges of pan. Grease bottom and sides of foil with shortening or cooking spray. Make and bake brownies as directed on box. Top hot brownies evenly with peanut butter cup candies, 4 rows by 4 rows; press down slightly. Cool completely on cooling rack, about 1 1/2 hours. If necessary, refrigerate 30 minutes, until peanut butter cups are firm.
• In large bowl, beat butter, peanut butter, powdered sugar, milk and vanilla with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy. Spread evenly over brownies.
• Top with marshmallows, peanuts and chocolate candies; press down slightly. Refrigerate 30 minutes. Using foil to lift, remove brownies from pan, and peel foil away. Cut into 4 rows by 4 rows. Cover and refrigerate any remaining brownies.

CHOCOLATE CHUNK BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Coarsely chop 7 oz of the chocolate. In a large sauce pan over medium heat combine butter, sugar and 2 tablespoons of water until butter is melted and sugar dissolved; remove from heat and stir in the 7 oz of chocolate until melted. Let the chocolate mixture cool and stir in vanilla and egg mixing well.
• In a large bowl whisk together flour, baking soda and salt. Slowly stir the flour mixture into the chocolate mixture until well combined.
• Chop the remaining 4 oz chocolate into 1/4-inch chunks. Stir in the chocolate chunks and nuts into the rest of the batter. Pour batter into a 9x9 square baking dish and bake for 22-27 minutes.
