Ingredients
  

Brownie Ingredients
  • 1 cup unsalted butter Melted but not too hot
  • 2 cups granulated sugar Can substitute with brown sugar for deeper flavor
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup Butterfinger candy bars, chopped Can substitute with other candy bars like Reese’s or Snickers
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, melt the butter, then whisk in the sugar and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition for a rich texture.
  4. In another bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry mix to the wet ingredients, taking care not to overmix.
  5. Gently fold in the chopped Butterfinger candy bars, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it out evenly.
  7. Drop spoonfuls of creamy peanut butter on top, swirling gently with a knife for a beautiful marbled finish.
Baking
  1. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  2. Allow the brownies to cool completely before cutting them into squares and serving.

Notes

For best flavor, serve warm with vanilla ice cream or drizzle with chocolate syrup. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
