It has been years since I have made brownies with cocoa powder rather than baking chocolate, but I have an over-abundance of peanut butter chips, and I wanted to do something with them. These were really good brownies, and super easy. I would've liked a more pronounced chocolate flavor, and if I could've found some special dark cocoa powder, I bet the chocolate flavor would've been outstanding. Unfortunately, my local grocer doesn't carry anything but basic cocoa powder, so whatevs :). Anyway, these were great, and at 235 calories a brownie, not super calorific. Aaron gave them a perfect 10, and the boys and I gave them a 9. Peanut butter and chocolate, can't be beat! Follow the link for the recipe, I followed it almost exactly, I just didn't sprinkle some of the peanut butter chips on top.
These sound really great, especially since I really love peanut butter cups. I will try them. Love mom
