Ingredients
To make these delicious Reese’s Brownies, you’ll need the following ingredients:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups (chopped)
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (for the topping)
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)
Optional Ingredients for Variations
- 1/4 cup almond flour (for a gluten-free option)
- Natural sweeteners (like honey or maple syrup) to reduce sugar.
Healthier Alternatives
Want to make your brownies a bit healthier? Here are some easy substitutions:
- Use almond flour instead of all-purpose flour for a gluten-free version.
- Opt for natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup in place of granulated sugar.
- Incorporate dark chocolate chips for a richer flavor with less sugar.
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×9-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
2. Melt the Butter
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the sugar until well combined.
3. Add Eggs and Vanilla
Mix in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, ensuring everything is well incorporated.
4. Combine Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Gradually fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined.
5. Fold in Reese’s
Gently fold in the chopped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, reserving a few for topping.
6. Bake
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan. Sprinkle any remaining Reese’s on top and optional chocolate chips. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
7. Cool and Serve
Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before cutting into squares. For an extra touch, drizzle with melted peanut butter or chocolate.
Serving Suggestions
These Reese’s Brownies are delicious on their own, but you can elevate them even further:
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.
- Drizzle with extra melted peanut butter or chocolate sauce.
- Garnish with chopped nuts for added crunch.
Storage Tips
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, you can freeze them for up to 3 months. Just make sure to wrap them well!
