As I sit to type out this recipe, I’m badly craving a brownie. These went way to fast. Wayyyy to fast. The combination of chocolate and peanut nutter butter is too much for me to handle at the best of times, and I just knew I hadta try baking these babies. Why? I was craving peanut butter cups. Reese’s is my second name. No. It is. And chocolate is my first. Don’t tell me I’m the only one who slaps on peanut butter and Nutella on fresh bread at any time of day, just because. Not necessarily hunger driven. More like insane cravings driven by mad feisty hormones.
This was another one of those, ‘I solemnly swear I’ll be good for the rest of my life,’ recipes, that I was praying would turn out with all my heart and soul. Well. It did. Boy did it everrrrr.
I don’t know what was better. Biting into the fudgy chocolate outside → reaching the creamy even-fudgier peanut butter centre sweetened with the perfect amount of sweetness → the perfect amount of peanut butter saltiness → or the entire fusion with melted chocolate and peanut butter chips. No. I don’t think anything is better than this. Except for maybe eating one brownie feels like three, there’s so much happening. It’s like a peanut butter cup pocket rocket.
It took every amount of insane strength to stop myself licking the entire bowl. The entire bowl. And the spoon. I had to keep reminding myself to get the batter into the pan first, Karina. Lick later. There’s always time for later licking. And fighting…over the spoon.
Simply put, you have to make these. And your inner teenager will be released. Like mine was.
