Peanut Butter Silk Brownies
Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need:
1 box of your favorite brownie mix (I used Pillsbury Chocolate Fudge)
8 oz full-fat cream cheese, softened
¾ cup powdered sugar
1 cup creamy peanut butter (plus ½ cup for drizzling)
1 cup whipping cream
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 Reese’s peanut butter chocolate bar
1 row of chocolate Oreos
½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
1. Prepare the Brownie Base
Follow the instructions on your brownie mix to bake in a 9x13 pan.
Once baked, let the brownies cool completely to create the perfect foundation for your peanut butter silk topping.
2. Make the Peanut Butter Filling
In a bowl, combine 8 oz softened cream cheese, 1 cup peanut butter, and ¾ cup powdered sugar. Mix on low speed until smooth and creamy.
3. Whip the Cream
In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup of whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Add in 1 tsp vanilla extract and gently fold it into the peanut butter mixture until fully combined.
Spread the whipped peanut butter topping evenly over the cooled brownies.
4. Chill and Set
Refrigerate the brownies for at least 3 hours to allow the peanut butter topping to set firmly.
5. Decorate Like a Pro
Chop the Reese’s peanut butter chocolate bar and Oreos into bite-sized chunks.
Melt ½ cup peanut butter and ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips separately in microwave-safe bags, heating at 40% power in 30-second intervals until runny.
Snip the tips of the bags and drizzle the warm peanut butter and chocolate over the chilled brownies in a swirling motion.
Sprinkle the chopped Reese’s and Oreos on top for that extra crunch and flavor.
Slice into squares, serve, and savor the ultimate peanut butter and chocolate experience.
