Categories     Afternoon tea, Treat

Time 45m

Yield Cuts into 16 squares

Number Of Ingredients 5

225g crunchy peanut butter
200g bar dark chocolate, broken into pieces
280g soft light brown sugar
3 medium eggs
100g self-raising flour

Steps:

  • Set aside 50g each of the peanut butter and chocolate. Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line a 20cm square baking tin with baking parchment. Gently melt remaining peanut butter, chocolate and all the sugar in a pan, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has just about melted. Transfer mix into a bowl to cool down slightly. Turn off heat and use a wooden spoon to beat in the eggs one by one. Stir in the flour and scrape into the tin.
  • Melt reserved peanut butter in the microwave on High for 45 secs, or in a pan, until runny, then drizzle over the brownie. Bake for 20-25 mins until it has a crust, but the middle still seems slightly uncooked.
  • Melt reserved chocolate, drizzle over the brownie, then cool in the tin before cutting into squares.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet.
  • If you don't have a microwave, you can melt the butter and chocolate in a saucepan over low heat.
  • To make sure the brownies are cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, they're done.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them into squares. This will help them hold their shape.
  • Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
