Peanut Butter Brownies

Yield: 24 brownies

Prep Time: 35 minutes | Bake Time: 30 minutes

For the Brownies:
1¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons dark unsweetened cocoa powder
11 ounces dark chocolate, coarsely chopped
1 cup (8 ounces) unsalted butter, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 teaspoon instant espresso powder
1½ cups granulated sugar
½ cup packed light brown sugar
5 eggs, at room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

For the Peanut Butter Swirl:
½ cup (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
1 cup powdered sugar
1½ cups creamy peanut butter
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter the sides and bottom of a 9×13-inch glass or light-colored baking pan. Line the pan with parchment paper.

2. In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, salt, and cocoa powder together.

3. Put the chocolate, butter and instant espresso powder in a large bowl and set it over a saucepan of simmering water, stirring occasionally, until the chocolate and butter are completely melted and smooth. Turn off the heat, but keep the bowl over the water and add the sugars. Whisk until completely combined, then remove the bowl from the pan. The mixture should be room temperature.

4. Add 3 eggs to the chocolate mixture and whisk until combined. Add the remaining eggs and whisk until combined. Add the vanilla and stir until combined. Do not overbeat the batter at this stage or your brownies will be cakey.

5. Sprinkle the flour mixture over the chocolate mixture. Using a rubber spatula (not a whisk), fold the flour mixture into the chocolate until just a bit of the flour mixture is visible.

6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.

7. In a medium bowl, whisk together all of the peanut butter swirl ingredients. Using a spoon, place dollops of the peanut butter mixture all over the top of the brownie batter. Using a butter knife, swirl the chocolate and peanut butter, running the knife crosswise and lengthwise through the batters.

8. Bake in the center of the oven for 30 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through the baking time, until a toothpick inserted into the center of the brownies comes out with a few moist crumbs sticking to it. Let the brownies cool completely, then lift them out of the pan using the parchment paper. Cut into squares and serve.

9. Store at room temperature in an airtight container or wrap with plastic wrap for up to 3 days.

Angel Chicken – Crockpot Recipe
Written by Thankfully Thrifty on July 27, 2011 · Leave a Comment

I posted a meal plan late last week without a link to one recipe. Well, here it is! Angel Chicken! Crockpot style!

Up to 6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
Two cans of cream of mushrooms soup (I prefer cream of chicken, and I made my own.)
Good Seasons Italian Salad Dressing Mix (Again, I made my own… an effort to eat less processed foods.)
One tub of cream cheese (I tried to make my own, but it wasn’t finished in time.)
1/2 c. butter
One cup white wine (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
Angel hair pasta or rice, to serve the angel chicken goodness on top

In a heated sauce pan, mix together the cream of mushroom/chicken soup, cream cheese, butter, Good Seasons salad dressing mix, and white wine together. Let simmer a minute or two. Then pour it on top of the chicken breasts in the crockpot. Turn the crockpot on low and let it sit 3-4 hours.

Then, make your angel hair pasta or rice. Place the now cooked chicken breasts on top of the pasta and pour the remaining sauce on top. Yum!
