These brownies are a family favorite, and one of the best recipes from The Pampered Chef's
Delightful Desserts Cookbook.
I have made them so many times, as a special request from my children
or to satisfy my own sweet tooth, and tonight when I did a search on my
blog for the recipe, was surprised that I haven't put it here before,
until now. It has been posted on my Instagram, but that's not very
helpful when I do a search for one of my recipes! So, here's how to
whip up this incredible, crowd-pleasing, diet-busting creation of
melt-in-your mouth chocolate, peanut butter, oatmeal, brownie heaven.
Layer 1:
- 1/2 cups salted dry roasted peanuts, chopped
- 1 cup quick rolled oats
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/3 cup flour
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 cup melted butter
Mix together, spread onto bottom of 9"x13" baking pan, then bake
at 350° F for 8 to 10 minutes, and it resembles a slightly undercooked
cookie. Remove from oven, then gently add the second layer. Here are the before and after pictures of the crust, or bottom layer.
Layer 2:
- Brownie mix for 9"x13" pan, follow directions. (You'll need 2 eggs, 2/3 cup vegetable oil, 1/4 cup water.)
Carefully pour onto layer 1, then bake for 30 minutes. Cool completely.
Layer 3:
- 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
Combine the two ingredients, then microwave one minute on high. Stir until smooth, then spread over baked brownie layer.
