Peanut Butter Swirl Brownies


It is National Peanut Butter Lover's Day. I am a peanut butter lover. I am a peanut butter fan. I love peanut butter. A lot. So, I celebrated National Peanut Butter Lover's Day with delicious peanut butter chocolate brownies. I would like to credit Hershey with an ultimate brownie mix. It is ultimate. It has super chocolateyness, it's moist, and best of all, it has chocolate chunks in it. Big chocolate chunks. Do you understand how much I love Hershey's Ultimate Chocolate Brownie Mix and peanut butter? I know the picture above doesn't do the brownies justice. I apologize for that. But don't deny yourself the decadence of these brownies due to my poor photography skills. If you love peanut butter, you will love these brownies. Period. Make them. Here's the recipe.


Peanut Butter Swirl Brownies


Ingredients:

1 pouch Hershey's Ultimate Chocolate Brownie Mix (or any other favorite brownie mix)
2 eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 tbsp water

For the peanut butter filling:

3/4 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp vanilla
3 tbsp butter, melted


Directions
Heat oven to indicated temperature on the brownie box.
Follow directions on brownie mix package. The ingredients listed below the Hershey mix is for the Hershey mix only. Use what the packaging tells you to use if you use a different brownie mix. Keep the batter in a bowl and set aside.

Add all of the peanut butter filling ingredients to a bowl and mix until smooth.

Grease an 11x7in pan. Add 1/3 to 1/2 of the brownie batter and spread across the bottom. Place dollops of peanut butter a few inches apart throughout the pan. Cover in remaining brownie batter then drizzle (it won't "drizzle"...but this is the best word I have for what needs to be done) across the top of the brownie batter. Using a knife, swirl peanut butter around as much as you like. Bake in the oven (according to directions on box) and enjoy!
