My husband and I have two sons21 and 18both away at college. I send these brownies to them regularly, and they tell me that they have to hide a few from their roommates just so they can make sure there'll be some left! Ingredients:
2 ounces unsweetened chocolate |
1/2 cup butter, cubed |
2 eggs |
1 cup sugar |
1/2 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
filling: |
1-1/2 cups confectioners' sugar |
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter |
1/4 cup butter, softened |
2 to 3 tablespoons half-and-half cream or milk |
glaze: |
1 ounce unsweetened chocolate |
1 tablespoon butter |
Directions:
1. In a small saucepan, melt chocolate and butter over low heat; set aside. In a bowl, beat eggs and sugar until light and pale colored. Add flour and melted chocolate; stir well. Pour into a greased 9-in. square baking pan. Bake at 350° for 25 minutes or until the brownies test done. Cool. For filling, beat confectioners' sugar, peanut butter and butter in a bowl. Stir in cream or milk until mixture reaches desired spreading consistency. Spread over cooled brownies; cover and chill until firm. For glaze; melt chocolate and butter in a saucepan, stirring until smooth. Drizzle over the filling. Chill before cutting. Store in refrigerator. Yield: about 5 dozen.
