One of my dearest friends took a picture of her PB Stuffed Brownies, sent it to me, and told me I HAD to make them and post them on AMFT. Well, it took me a while a month or so to actually getting around to making them. I knew they would be good, but I just couldn’t bring myself to make them. Everyone is stuffing everything into something these days.
And then, I had a party to go to and thought this would be the perfect place to take them. I love being able to make something tasty and NOT have it hang around the house adding to my waistline. Taking it to the party let me have one piece and then share the rest with my hungry friends and family! Let it go to their waistlines. LOL!
These brownies can be super easy by using a boxed mix or you can use your favorite scratch brownie recipe with just a few simple changes. I also tried making these with rolos. Not so good. The caramel inside the rolos just didn’t do well during the baking process…not sure what’s up with that….ew! But the mini peanut butter cups work beautifully. These brownies are so sinfully delicious and very rich.

This looks delicious, and the very idea of a pb filling makes it sound even better. I wish I can start baking, but we don’t really have a working oven right now.

I’ve mixed PB into brownie mix but this sounds much yummier! Why use coconut oil instead of eggs, oil, and water?
Wendy says
You will still use eggs and water, but replace the oil with the coconut oil. For one, it’s much healthier and two it gives a faint coconut taste that is amazing in the brownies!
