Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
Add eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.
Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. Stir until just combined—do not overmix.
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
In a small bowl, mix peanut butter, powdered sugar, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Drop spoonfuls of the peanut butter mixture over the brownie batter. Use a knife to gently swirl it in.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Let cool completely before slicing into squares. Enjoy!

Notes

Extra fudgy brownies: Slightly underbake them and let them cool in the pan.
Chunky peanut butter: Use chunky peanut butter for added texture.

Storage: Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days or refrigerate for a week.
