Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Brownies Delight.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
While it warms up, grab a 9x13-inch baking dish and give it a light coat of cooking spray to ensure your brownies come out easily.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 1/2 cups of white sugar, 1 cup of melted butter, and 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract.
Step 4
Mix these ingredients together until they’re beautifully blended and smooth.
Step 5
Next, add in the eggs one at a time, making sure to mix thoroughly after each addition.
Step 6
This step is key to achieving that perfect, velvety texture.
Step 7
In a separate bowl, sift together 1 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt.
Step 8
Gradually fold this dry mixture into your wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
Step 9
You want to keep that rich, fudgy consistency, so don’t overmix! Now, pour the luscious brownie batter into your prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Step 10
Pop it into the preheated oven and let it bake for about 35 to 40 minutes.
Step 11
You’ll know they’re ready when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean—this is the moment you’ve been waiting for! While your brownies are baking, let’s whip up the delightful peanut butter layer.
Step 12
In a large bowl, combine 1/2 cup of milk with 1 tablespoon of vinegar and let it sit for about 5 minutes to create a homemade sour milk.
Step 13
This little trick adds a wonderful depth of flavor! After that, mix in 1/2 cup of butter, 1/2 cup of peanut butter, 1/2 cup of white sugar, and 1/2 cup of brown sugar.
Step 14
Stir until everything is smooth and creamy.
Step 15
In a small bowl, sift together 1 1/4 cups of flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
Step 16
Gently fold this dry mixture into your peanut butter blend until it’s well combined.
Step 17
Once your brownies are out of the oven and still warm, spread the luscious peanut butter mixture over the top.
Step 18
For an extra indulgent touch, drizzle some melted chocolate chips on top—because who can resist a little more chocolate? Now, let your creation chill in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours.
Step 19
This will help the layers set beautifully.
Step 20
Once they’re perfectly chilled, cut them into squares and get ready to enjoy a slice of heaven! These brownies are sure to be a hit, whether you’re sharing with friends or keeping them all to yourself.
Step 21
Happy baking!.
