Peanut Butter Swirl Brownies

Yummo!!!  These brownies are light as air, almost cake-like.  The peanut butter flavour is not over-powering, just right.

Ingredients:

• 1 1/4 cups all purpose flour
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1/4 cup butter, melted & slightly cooled
• 2 Tbsp 2% milk
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
• 1/4 semisweet chocolate chips
• 4 large peanut butter cups, coarsely chopped*

* I used the small peanut butter cups cut in half.

Directions:

1.  Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2.  Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt, stirring with a whisk.

3.  Combine peanut butter, butter, milk, vanilla, and eggs, stirring well.   Add peanut butter mixture to flour mixture and stir until combined.  Stir in the chocolate chips.

4.  Scrape the batter into a 9" square baking pan lightly coated with cooking spray.  Arrange the peanut cups over the batter.

5.  Bake at 350 degrees for 19 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Cool in the pan on a wire rack.  Drink with a big glass of cold milk!
