If you&#8217;re worried it won&#8217;t be sweet enough, don&#8217;t be. This recipe has enough sugar to make up for it.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Butter:<\/strong> They say everything is better with butter, and that&#8217;s definitely true here! You&#8217;ll need quality unsalted butter for the brownies, the peanut butter filling and the glaze.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Eggs:<\/strong> Two large eggs will provide enough structure to form a classic fudgy brownie and bind the base ingredients.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sugar:<\/strong> Granulated sugar sweetens the brownies while confectioners&#8217; sugar helps to keep the peanut butter filling smooth and airy.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Flour:<\/strong> This brownie recipe uses all-purpose flour.

Natural peanut butter is a bit too oily to provide the filling with its smooth and slightly stiff texture.

This will help keep them fresh, and I think the brownies actually taste better when served slightly chilled.<\/p>\n<h3>How long do peanut butter brownies last?<\/h3>\n<p>Peanut butter brownies last up to a week in the refrigerator. (Honestly I&#8217;d be surprised if they last that long\u2014they disappear pretty quickly in our house!)<\/p>\n<h3>Can you freeze peanut butter brownies?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, you can freeze peanut butter brownies. Either freeze the brownies whole in a freezer-safe container covered with a tight lid or freeze them individually, stacked in a freezer-safe container. Separate each layer with parchment. Allow the brownies to thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving them.<\/p>\n<h2>Peanut Butter Brownies Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2060771 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Peanut-Butter-Brownies_TOHVP24_1939_MR_09_18_2.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"A pan of chocolate-drizzled peanut butter bars cut into squares.

To check for chewy brownies (and to prevent them from overcooking), stick a toothpick into them while they&#8217;re in the oven; if you see moist crumbs, then you&#8217;ve likely achieved a chewy texture. If you prefer cakier brownies, add a few pinches of flour, baking soda and baking powder to the batter.<\/p>\n<h3>How can I make my brownies more moist?<\/h3>\n<p>If you love moist and fudgy brownies, then you should add more fat\u2014such as butter or chocolate\u2014to the recipe. You can also try adding an additional egg or follow our recipe for\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/ultimate-fudgy-brownies\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/ultimate-fudgy-brownies\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ultimate fudgy brownies<\/a>\u00a0and use them as the brownie base in this recipe.<\/p>\n<h3>How can you tell when brownies are done?<\/h3>\n<p>Brownies are done when they&#8217;re set in the middle, and their edges have started to pull away from the sides of the pan. To check your brownies&#8217; doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of the pan. If it comes out clean, they&#8217;re ready to remove from the oven. When in doubt, remove the brownies from the oven sooner rather than later\u2014the brownies will continue cooking as they cool. There&#8217;s nothing worse than a dry and crumbly brownie.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When you can&#8217;t decide between brownies or peanut butter bars, peanut butter brownies are the perfect compromise.
