Brownie Batter
- 1 batch of your favorite brownie batter (about 1 box brownie mix or homemade equivalent)
Filling
- 10 Reese’s peanut butter cups (standard size), unwrapped
- Prepare the Brownie Batter: Follow the instructions on your chosen brownie mix box or use your homemade recipe to prepare the batter. This usually involves mixing key ingredients such as eggs, oil, and water with the dry brownie mix until smooth.
- Pour the Batter into the Pan: Lightly grease a 9×9-inch baking pan and pour half of the prepared brownie batter evenly across the bottom, spreading it smoothly with a spatula.
- Add Reese’s Cups: Place the unwrapped Reese’s peanut butter cups evenly over the brownie batter layer, slightly pressing them down for secure placement.
- Top with Remaining Batter: Spoon the remaining brownie batter gently over the Reese’s cups, ensuring they are fully covered to prevent burning during baking.
- Bake the Brownies: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the brownies for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the edge comes out with moist crumbs but no raw batter.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares to serve. This helps the layers set and prevents the filling from oozing out.
Notes
- Use a toothpick to test for doneness, avoiding the center where the peanut butter cups are.
- For extra gooeyness, slightly underbake by a couple of minutes if preferred.
- These brownies are best enjoyed within 2-3 days stored in an airtight container at room temperature.
- Can be refrigerated to extend freshness but let come to room temperature before serving for best texture.
