Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter (for swirling)
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a mini muffin tin or line it with paper liners. - Prepare the Brownie Batter:
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and sugar until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined. Stir in the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder, and mix until the batter is smooth and glossy. - Fill the Muffin Tin:
Spoon the brownie batter into the prepared mini muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full. - Add the Peanut Butter Swirl:
Warm the peanut butter slightly in the microwave for 10-15 seconds to make it easier to swirl. Drop a small dollop of peanut butter onto the top of each brownie bite. Use a toothpick or skewer to gently swirl the peanut butter into the batter. - Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Be careful not to overbake. - Cool and Serve:
Let the brownie bites cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve at room temperature or slightly warm for an extra gooey texture.
These Peanut Butter Brownie Bites are a delightful combination of rich chocolate and creamy peanut butter, perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth. Enjoy them as a dessert, snack, or even as a decadent addition to your next gathering!
