I omitted the chocolate frosting on top. The peanut butter layer makes the perfect frosting! Also I stirred a half package of peanut butter chips into the brownie batter. Mmmmm! Will be making these regularly!

Yum! I didn't want the top layer of canned frosting, so I drizzled melted chocolate chips one direction and melted peanut butter chips the other direction. Very pretty and sooooo good!

This is my favorite brownie recipe! But it is super rich, so I recommend cutting the confectioners' sugar in half. I've done this several times and enjoyed it with less sugar.

These were AMAZING!! I made my own frosting instead of using canned stuff and it was even better than we could have imagined!! These are definitely worth making!!
