Time 42m

Yield 20 large brownies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound unsalted butter
1 pound plus 12 ounces semisweet chocolate chips, divided
6 ounces unsweetened chocolate
6 extra-large eggs
3 tablespoons instant coffee granules
2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups sugar
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, divided
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup smooth peanut butter

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 a stand mixer or hand mixer to cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. This will help to create a chewy cookie.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  • Divide the cookie dough in half. Roll out one half of the dough between two sheets of parchment paper to a thickness of 1/4 inch. Spread the peanut butter over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges. Roll up the dough tightly, starting from one long side and working your way to the other. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Roll out the remaining half of the dough to a thickness of 1/4 inch. Cut out cookies using a 2-inch round cookie cutter. Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Remove the peanut butter log from the refrigerator and slice it into 1/2-inch thick rounds. Place a peanut butter round on top of each cookie.
  • Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to brown. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
