Peanut Butter Brownies



Sunday was crazy! I think I spent the whole day doing laundry. Folding a "Mountain." Makes you want to let your kids have 5 outfits, one for church, 1 pair of pjs, and that is it! Crazy...It took all day. So much for a day of rest...well I did manage to make Peanut Butter Brownies for lunches and loaves of bread for the week. We had a simple dinner of Sauteed chicken breasts, pounded thin with Grandma's special spices, Sauteed Zuc's and Stove Top...not too original, but very easy and quick. I had to get back to the mountain...

Peanut Butter Brownies
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 1/3 cup white sugar
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
4 eggs
2/3 cup butter, softened
2 tsp baking powder

Cream peanut butter and butter together in mixer. Add in one at a time; sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Mix until fluffy. Ins medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder,and salt. Stir into the peanut butter mixture. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 35 to 45 min in a 9x13 pan. They will be done when the top springs back. These are dense and not too sweet. For the finale, I put 2 cups of chocolate chips on the hot brownies and then spread evenly making a chocolate layer on top. Cool overnight or stick in the freezer if you just can't wait until the chocolate hardens!
