  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1 1/3 cups miniature Reese's Peanut Butter cups, cut in half
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter, creamy
Preparation:
  • Melt butter in a medium saucepan
  • Add 2 cups sugar and cocoa, stir to blend
  • Remove from heat, add eggs and vanilla extract
  • In another bowl, stir together flour, salt, and baking soda
  • Add flour mixture to chocolate mix
  • Stir in 2/3 cup PB cups
  • Spread out in greased 9x13 pan
  • Combine PB and 2 tbsp sugar
  • Drop dollops of PB on brownie mix and swirl with a butter knife
