Yield Makes 12-24, depending on desired size

Number Of Ingredients 17

For the peanut butter cookie layer
160g (5¾ oz / ½ cup + 2 tablespoons) smooth peanut butter
220g (8 oz / 1 cup) light brown sugar
1 large egg, plus 2 large egg yolks
100g (3½ oz / ¾ cup) all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda (baking soda)
½ teaspoon fine sea salt
100g (3 oz) salted peanuts, roughly chopped
For the brownie layer
150g (5½ oz / 1⅓ sticks) unsalted butter, diced, plus extra for greasing
85g (3 oz / 1 cup) cocoa powder
100g (3½ oz / ½ cup) caster (superfine) sugar
100g (3½ oz / ⅓ cup + 2 tablespoons) light brown sugar
¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
70g (2½ oz / ½ cup + 1 tablespoon) all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F), Gas Mark 4. Lightly grease a 13x9" baking tin and line with a piece of parchment paper that overhangs the two long sides. Secure in place with metal clips.
  • For the peanut butter cookie layer, mix the peanut butter and brown sugar together in a large bowl for a couple of minutes until combined and slightly lightened. Add the egg and egg yolks and beat together for a further 2-3 minutes. Add all the remaining ingredients (reserving 3 tablespoons of the peanuts for sprinkling over later) and gently mix together to form a uniform cookie dough. Spread the cookie dough in an even layer in the prepared tin, then set aside.
  • For the brownie layer, add the butter and cocoa to a small saucepan over a medium heat, stirring constantly, until melted and smooth. Remove from the heat and set aside. Place the sugars, salt, vanilla and eggs in a large bowl and whisk together with an electric mixer for 2-3 minutes or until slightly thickened and pale. Pour in the melted butter mixture, mixing briefly until combined, then fold in the flour. Pour the batter over the cookie layer and spread into an even layer, then sprinkle over the reserved peanuts.
  • Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the middle comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  • Leave the brookies to cool completely in the tin, before using the parchment paper to lift them from the tin and cutting into squares.Store in a sealed container for 3-4 days.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my brookies turned out flat and dense. I'm going to try again soon.

These brookies are really good, but they are very rich. I can only eat one or two at a time.

I found these brookies to be a little dry. I think I'll try adding some extra butter or oil next time.

These brookies are a little too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm allergic to peanuts, but I was still able to enjoy these brookies by using sunflower seed butter instead. They were just as delicious!

I'm not a big fan of peanut butter, but I really enjoyed these brookies. The chocolate flavor is really strong.
