Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Line 9x13 pan with parchment paper and spray lightly with cooking spray.
  3. Melt butter and sugar in a heavy saucepan on very low heat. Let the mixture slightly cool and transfer to a large bowl.
  4. Add eggs gradually, mixing well.
  5. Add Rodelle Vanilla Extract.
  6. Sift dry ingredients together and add to egg mixture, stirring gently and minimally.
  7. Pour into prepared pan.
  8. Prepare the peanut butter swirl by combing all ingredients and whisking until smooth (it’s best to add to the brownie batter while still warm).
  9. Drop about half of the peanut butter swirl mixture in dollops over the surface of the brownie batter. Swirl with the tip of a knife.
  10. Layer the remaining brownie batter on top, and repeat the peanut butter swirl. Make sure to swirl to the edges.
  11. Bake approximately 35 minutes - do NOT overbake!
  12. Cool before cutting.
  13. Turn onto a surface and peel parchment paper off.
  14. Cut into squares and enjoy!
