Ingredients
Scale
For the Brownie Batter:
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
For the Filling:
- 12 mini Reese’s peanut butter cups (or 6 regular-sized cups, halved)
Instructions
- Prep the Oven and Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- Melt Butter: In a saucepan, melt 1 cup of unsalted butter over low heat. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the melted butter and 2 cups of sugar. Whisk in 4 eggs and 1 teaspoon of vanilla until smooth.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, sift together 1 cup flour, 1 cup cocoa powder, ½ teaspoon baking powder, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
- Combine Mixtures: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
- Layer the Brownie Batter: Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared pan. Evenly distribute the Reese’s cups over the batter, then pour the remaining batter on top.
- Bake: Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool and Serve: Allow to cool in the pan for about 30 minutes before cutting into squares and serving.
Notes
- For extra flavor, consider adding chocolate chips or a swirl of peanut butter on top before baking.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
