The Beginning...

So, I finally decided I need to blog to keep in touch with family and friends. My life is extremely boring, but I can't wait to bore you with my projects, baking and silly adventures my sweet husband and I have.

For my first post, here is my favorite Peanut Butter Brownie recipe.

1 box of your favorite brownie mix (and ingredients it calls for)
1 cup peanut butter chips
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
3/4 cup creamy peanut butter

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray or grease 40 mini-muffin cups.

Prepare boxed brownie mix as directed. Add in 1/2 cup of peanut butter chips and 1/2 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips to the batter. Spoon batter evenly into muffin cups (about 1 heaping teaspoon). Bake for 13-15 minutes or until top is set and a toothpick inserted into center comes out slightly wet. After brownies are out of the oven, wait for centers to fall. This will happen upon cooling. If not then tap the centers with the back of a teaspoon to make a hole for the peanut butter.
Place peanut butter in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 45 seconds then stir. While brownies are still warm spoon about half a teaspoon of peanut butter into the center of each brownie. Top with semi-sweet chocolate chips and peanut butter chips. Cool completely in pan.
