Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Peanut Butter Cup Swirl Brownies.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). While the oven warms up, grab a 9x13-inch baking dish and grease it well to ensure your brownies come out easily later on.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, vegetable oil, 2 eggs, and water. Stir everything together until you have a smooth batter. Gently fold in the chopped chocolate-covered peanut butter cups, letting their deliciousness spread throughout the mix.
Step 3
In another bowl, beat together the creamy peanut butter, white sugar, softened butter, all-purpose flour, vanilla extract, and 1 egg using an electric mixer. Mix until everything is thoroughly combined and creamy.
Step 4
Now, it’s time to layer! Spread half of the brownie batter into the bottom of your prepared baking dish. Then, drop dollops of the peanut butter mixture evenly over the brownie layer. Pour the remaining brownie batter over the top, making sure to cover the peanut butter dollops.
Step 5
Take a knife and gently swirl the peanut butter mixture into the brownie batter. Be careful not to overmix; you want those beautiful swirls to remain visible!
Step 6
Pop the dish into your preheated oven and bake for about 30 to 40 minutes. Keep an eye on them, and when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs, they’re ready!
Step 7
Once baked, let the brownies cool completely in the dish before cutting them into squares and serving. Enjoy the delightful combination of chocolate and peanut butter!
