Peanut Butter Swirl Fudge Brownies
You'll find it extremely difficult to only have one of these super-moist and fudgy brownies --- their fudge-like texture and gorgeous peanut-butter swirl make them positively irresistible!
Servings 1 dozen brownies
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup white whole wheat flour
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup coconut sugar or brown sugar
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 3 large eggs room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F and lightly grease a 9x13 baking pan. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine flour, cocoa, and salt. In a large bowl, whisk coconut sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla until smooth. Gently fold flour mixture into liquid, until just combined. (batter will be on the thicker side)
- Spread batter evenly in prepared pan and then drop peanut butter by the tablespoon evenly over batter. Using a knife, gently cut through batter to create swirls. (do not stir too much, otherwise you'll lose the swirl effect)
- Bake brownies at 350F 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs still sticking to it. (brownies will be very soft---this is ok) Cool brownies on a wire cooling rack completely before cutting into squares.
Notes
Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature up to 4 days.
