Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • ⅔ cup butter, melted
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup creamy or chunky peanut butter

Dry Ingredients

  • 1⅓ cups granulated sugar
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Add-ins

  • ½ cup REESE’s PIECES candy

Instructions

  1. Preheat and prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. Mix wet ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the melted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar. Whisk until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and peanut butter until fully incorporated.
  3. Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Mix wet and dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure chewy brownies.
  5. Add candies: Gently fold in the REESE’s PIECES candy, reserving a small handful to sprinkle on top if desired.
  6. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Sprinkle the reserved REESE’s PIECES on top for an attractive finish. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  7. Cool and serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares. This helps them set and retain their chewy texture.

Notes

  • For chunkier texture, use chunky peanut butter.
  • You can substitute REESE’s PIECES with peanut M&Ms for a different candy variation.
  • Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days or refrigerate to extend freshness.
  • For easier slicing, chill the brownies for about 30 minutes before cutting.
