Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line a buttered 8-inch square baking pan with foil or parchment paper, allowing 2 inches to hang over sides. Butter lining (excluding overhang); set pan aside.
- Make batter: Put butter and chocolates in a heatproof medium bowl set over a pan of simmering water; stir until melted. Let cool slightly.
- Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl, and set aside.
- Whisk granulated sugar into chocolate mixture. Add eggs, and whisk until mixture is smooth. Stir in vanilla. Add flour mixture; stir until well incorporated.
- Make filling: Stir together butter, confectioners' sugar, peanut butter, salt, and vanilla in a bowl until smooth.
- Pour one-third of batter into prepared pan, and spread evenly with a rubber spatula. Place dollops of filling (about 1 tablespoon each) about 1 inch apart on top of batter. Drizzle remaining batter on top, and gently spread to fill pan. Place dollops of remaining filling on top.
- With a butter knife, gently swirl filling into batter, running knife lengthwise and crosswise through layers. Bake until a cake tester inserted into brownies (avoid center and edges) comes out with a few crumbs but is not wet, about 45 minutes. Let cool slightly in pan, about 15 minutes. Lift out brownies; let cool completely on a wire rack before cutting into squares.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9-inch square baking pan with cooking spray.
- Beat together the confectioners' sugar, peanut butter, cream cheese, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1 egg in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until smooth.
- In a small bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt. Whisk to thoroughly combine.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 eggs, granulated sugar and remaining 1 teaspoon vanilla. Whisk in the butter.
- Add the flour mixture and chocolate chips to the bowl with the egg-butter mixture and fold together with a spoon or spatula until just combined.
- Add half of the brownie batter to the pan and tap on the countertop to level. Add the peanut butter mixture by the spoonful, making sure that the spoonfuls do not touch each another. Pour the remaining brownie batter over the top and swirl the two batters together with a butter knife.
- Bake until the edges are just set, about 20 minutes. The center should still be soft. Cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before cutting.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour a 12 by 18 by 1 1/2-inch sheet pan.
- Melt together the butter, 1 pound of chocolate chips, and the unsweetened chocolate in a medium bowl over simmering water. Allow to cool slightly. In a large bowl, stir (do not beat) together the eggs, coffee granules, vanilla, and sugar. Stir the warm chocolate mixture into the egg mixture and allow to cool to room temperature.
- In a medium bowl, sift together 1 cup of flour, the baking powder, and salt. Add to the cooled chocolate mixture. Toss the remaining 12 ounces of chocolate chips in a medium bowl with 1/4 cup of flour, then add them to the chocolate batter. Pour into the prepared sheet pan. Spoon the peanut butter over the top of the chocolate mixture and using a knife, swirl it through the chocolate mixture.
- Bake for 20 minutes, then rap the baking sheet against the oven shelf to force the air to escape from between the pan and the brownie dough. Bake for about 10 to 15 minutes more or until a toothpick comes out clean. Do not overbake! Allow to cool thoroughly, refrigerate, and cut into large squares.

Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate: The type of chocolate you use will greatly impact the flavor of your brownies. Opt for a good-quality semisweet or bittersweet chocolate with a cacao content of at least 60%.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will develop the gluten in the flour, resulting in a tough, chewy brownie. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use a toothpick to test for doneness: To prevent overbaking, insert a toothpick into the center of the brownies. If it comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached, the brownies are done.
- Let the brownies cool completely before cutting: Cutting into the brownies while they're still warm will cause them to crumble. Allow them to cool completely before slicing and serving.
- Store the brownies properly: Brownies can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week. You can also freeze the brownies for up to 2 months.
Conclusion:
The combination of rich chocolate and creamy peanut butter makes these brownies a decadent and delicious treat. With their fudgy texture and perfect balance of flavors, they're sure to be a hit with chocolate and peanut butter lovers alike.
