Buckeye Brownies
Ingredients
- 1 box brownie mix including ingredients noted on back of box
- 1¼ cup chocolate chips
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- ½ cup butter softened
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 4 Tbsp butter
- 4 Tbsp milk
- 1 cup sugar
- ½ cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Grease a 9 X 13 pan and set aside. Make brownie batter according to the instructions on the box. Add 1 cup of chocolate and stir into the batter. Pour into greased pan. Sprinkle ¼ cup o chocolate chips on top of the batter. Bake according to the instructions on the box and set aside to cool completely. (These are great by themselves if you want a regular brownie! The chocolate chips add a little extra richness.)
- In a medium sized bowl, mix together the powdered sugar, ½ cup of butter, and peanut butter. Make sure it is completely mixed together and a smooth texture. Once the brownies have cooled, used your hands to spread/pat this over the brownies until it is in one even layer.
- Put 4 Tbsp butter, 4 Tbsp milk, and 1 cup sugar in a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Let boil for 3 minutes while stirring constantly. Remove this mixture from the heat and add ½ cup of chocolate chips. Stir until smooth. Immediately pour over the peanut butter layer. This hardens fairly fast, so make sure to work quickly. Enjoy!
