Peanut Butter Chocolate Brownies

Sharing is caring!

A moist chocolate brownie with a swirl of peanut butter gives you a tasty treat.

These brownies are just so soft.   Luckily for me the Chief Taster was travelling so I got to be the sole taster.   I normally let the brownies cool before eating but curiousity got the better of me.  Very delicious warm.  So much that I had to cut them into squares once cool and wrap them up for the freezer before I ate the whole tin.

I used chunky peanut butter only because the smooth was not available in my normal brand.  The crunch added something to the brownie but smooth would be just as nice.  

Although I used coconut flour for this, you could make this recipe with almond flour too. Perhaps with less egg and coconut milk though as coconut flour does love liquid! 

I cut the total bake into 9 squares but you could cut smaller portions if you wanted (but why! I cry).   They freeze very well and are a handy snack to have in the freezer.
