Ingredients

Servings

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• ¹⁄₄ cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• ¹⁄₂ teaspoon Baking powder
• ¹⁄₄ teaspoon Salt
• ¹⁄₂ cup Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• ¹⁄₂ cup Brown sugar
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• ¹⁄₂ cup Creamy peanut butter
• ¹⁄₂ cup Rice crispy cereal
• ¹⁄₂ cup Semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x9-inch baking pan.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a separate large bowl, mix together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until well combined. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, and mix until smooth.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
5. In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the peanut butter for 30 seconds or until melted. Stir the rice crispy cereal into the melted peanut butter.
6. Spread half of the brownie batter evenly into the prepared baking pan. Top with the peanut butter and rice crispy mixture, spreading it out in an even layer. Sprinkle the semisweet chocolate chips over the top.
7. Pour the remaining brownie batter over the top and carefully spread it to cover the peanut butter and chocolate chips.
8. Bake for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
9. Remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 30 minutes before cutting into squares.
10. Enjoy!
