Peanut Butter Brownie Bomb

Thank you for helping me come up with a name for this dense, fudgey and irresistible brownie!!

This is a brownie recipe from scratch, with a Peanut Butter-Cream cheese THICK topping with goodies thrown in… like you need anything more, but still!

Couple things to note… this is ‘wet’ and rich… not for ‘cake-like’ brownie lovers… AND it’s not for anyone that’s trying to be on a New Year’s Diet… (SORRY!) everything is fine in moderation!

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup butter
• 1 cup white sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 bag Reese’s Peanut Butter Chips
• 1/2 cup creamy Peanut Butter
• 4oz Softened cream cheese
• 1/4 – 1/3 cup powdered sugar
• Glazed Pecans (Emerald Pecan Pie Glazed Pecan’s)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8 inch square pan.
2. In a large bowl, melt 1/2 cup butter. Blend in sugar, eggs, and 1 teaspoon vanilla.
3. Then Beat in 1/3 cup cocoa, 1/2 cup flour, salt, and baking powder. Fold in PB Chips and spread into the prepared pan.
4. Bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes. Do not overcook.
5. In the meantime, Beat PB, Cream cheese and powdered sugar (it won’t be super smooth, don’t worry)
6. Spread over top brownies when they slightly cool (~10 mins) out of oven. Top with glazed Pecans
7. You will need Milk!! Enjoy!!
