I mean, it’s chocolate and peanut butter…how can you go wrong here?! I seriously am craving 5 of these just looking at the photos. Gimme! Pinned!
Right…right!?! I couldn’t agree more 🙂

These brownies look incredible. So fudgy!
You and me both, Erin. Thanks!
I am so excited to try these recipes, this brownies so delisious, I think i would’n stop eating them. Thank for sharing amazing recipe!
I love adding peanut butter to brownies! These look great!
Thanks Jessica! I thought you might approve of the peanut butter addition 😉
I tried the peanut brownies yesterday, and they look and smell wonderful–Served them for after dinner treat. I thought that they tasted dry–but the flavor was great. How can I make them not so dry and crumbly? Thanks
Thanks for your feedback, Carol. You prompted me to update my recipe with a bit more info. Brownies continue to cook for a few minutes once removed from the oven so they can easily get slightly overbaked (causing dryness). So I would try removing the brownies about 5 minutes sooner if you decide to give it another try. This is my go-to brownie recipe because I prefer brownies that are not too fudgy or cakey. Thanks again for leaving a comment about your experience. Have a fantastic day!
