Since these were such a big hit at my house, I made them the next time my son came up and told me he needed a snack for his classroom. The pan is big enough to feed a decent sized group. They are so rich and chocolately that you don’t need a big piece to satisfy you. Whenever he takes them in, he says that everyone always tells him how good they are. Check out what they are saying about this recipe over at Spend With Pennies:
“They’re fudgy, very chocolaty, and can be made in just one bowl.”
Start with a yummy brownie base, and the rest just kind of falls into place.
Ingredients
18 Tablespoons Land O’ Lakes unsalted butter (cut into Tbsp-sized pieces)
¾ cup Nestle Toll House semisweet chocolate chips
¾ cup natural cocoa powder
1½ cup sugar
¾ cup brown sugar packed
3 large eggs + 1 egg yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon salt
1½ cup Gold Medal all-purpose flour
2 cups white chocolate chips
1 can condensed milk
½ cup Jif peanut butter
¼ tsp vanilla extract
⅛ tsp salt
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350F and spray a 13×9 pan with baking spray
Combine butter and chocolate chips in a large, microwave-safe bowl.
Microwave for 30 seconds. Stir well, microwave for another 15 seconds and then stir well again. Repeat for 15 seconds until chocolate and butter are completely melted and well-combined.
Add cocoa powder and stir well.
Add sugars, stir until completely combined.
Add eggs and then egg yolk, one at a time, stirring well after each addition
Add vanilla extract and salt, stir to combine.
Add flour, stir until completely combined.
Spread approximately ½ of the batter evenly into prepared pan and make your peanut butter fudge
Combine peanut butter chips, condensed milk, and peanut butter in a medium-sized saucepan over medium-low heat.
Stir frequently until peanut butter chips are melted and mixture is smooth.
Remove from heat, stir in vanilla extract and salt, and pour evenly over brownie batter in pan, use a spatula to spread evenly, if necessary.
Allow to set for about 5 minutes, and then spread the remaining batter over the fudge, doing your best to cover completely with brownie batter.
Bake on 350F for 40-50 minutes, use a toothpick to check for doneness at 40 minutes (toothpick should come out with few fudgy moist crumbs, but not wet batter).
Allow to cool completely before cutting and serving. The longer you allow the brownies to set the firmer the fudge will become.
