Ingredients
Peanut Butter Batter:
-
2 (3 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
-
½ cup peanut butter
-
¼ cup white sugar
-
1 large egg
-
2 tablespoons milk
Brownie Batter:
-
2 cups white sugar
-
1 cup butter, melted
-
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
-
3 large eggs
-
1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
-
¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
-
½ teaspoon baking powder
-
¼ teaspoon salt
-
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
-
Make peanut butter batter: Beat cream cheese, peanut butter, sugar, egg, and milk in a medium bowl until smooth. Set aside.
-
Make brownie batter: Mix together sugar, melted butter, and vanilla in a large bowl until combined. Mix in eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Combine flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl; mix into batter until well combined. Stir in chocolate chips until incorporated.
-
Set aside 1 cup brownie batter. Spread remaining brownie batter into the prepared dish. Spread peanut butter batter on top. Drop reserved chocolate batter by teaspoonfuls over the top. Using a knife, gently swirl through the top layers for a marbled effect.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until a wooden toothpick inserted near the center comes out almost clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool completely, then cut into bars.
