Brownie Ingredients: 1 ½ cups all purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking powder ¼ teaspoon salt 6 Tablespoons butter, softened ½ cup peanut butter 2/3 cup sugar 2/3 cup packed brown sugar 3 eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips Directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease an 8 X 8 pan. In a medium bowl, stir the flour, baking powder and salt together with a wire whisk and set aside. In a mixer, cream the butter and peanut butter until smooth. Add the sugars and mix until combined. Add the eggs and vanilla and mix until combined. Add the dry ingredients and mix on low until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips. Spread in the pan and bake for 30-35 minutes or until done. **HINTS: Bake for 32 minutes if you still want them to be gooey in the center. If you want them baked all the way, to avoid the top turning too brown, place a sheet of aluminum over the pan about halfway through baking. Or you could bake them in a 9 X 13 inch pan for a few minutes less and get more brownies, too. Frosting: ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips ½ cup peanut butter ½ cup butter, softened 2 cups confectioner’s sugar, sifted Milk Directions: Melt the chocolate in the microwave in 30 second intervals until smooth. Stir in the peanut butter until completely combined and set aside. In a mixer, mix the butter until smooth. Add the sugar and mix until combined. Add the chocolate and peanut butter mixture and mix until completely blended.**HINT: You can add a teaspoon at a time of milk if you would like the frosting creamier. When the brownies are cool, spread the frosting on top. -- source link
