Peanut Butter Brownie Cups
Ingredients
Scale
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup butter, softened
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips separated as follows: 3/4 cup (to melt), 1/2 cup (to stir in) and 1/2 cup reserved for garnish
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup peanut butter chips (I used Reese’s PB chips) separated as follows: 1/2 cup to stir in and 1/2 cup reserved for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350
- Grease 12 cup muffin pan
- Combine sugar, butter and water in medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on HIGH for 1 minute or until butter is melted.

- Stir in 1/2 cup each of PB chips and semi-sweet chips. Spoon a heaping tablespoon batter into each prepared muffin cup.
- Bake for 13 to 15 minutes or until top is set and wooden pick inserted center comes out still slightly wet.
