Fudge Brownies marbled with Peanut Butter


Of all the sweets I bake, I am asked for the recipe for my nutty fudge brownies the most.

Instead of mixing nuts (usually macadamia) in, I marbled this batch with peanut butter in attempt to use up the unloved jar in the pantry.

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius.

Melt 100g butter and 200g dark chocolate together.
Mix in 1 cup of brown sugar followed by two eggs.
Add 1/3 cup of sour cream.
Fold in 1/4 cup of cocoa and 1/4 cup of flour.  (it can be wheat flour, GF flour, or almond meal)
Fold in 1/2 cup of chocolate chips.

Line a brownies tin with baking paper and pour in the batter.
Dot the surface with as much peanut butter as you like.
Using a knife, draw lines through the peanut butter for marbled effect.

Baking time really depends on your oven.
20 to 30 minutes or until the batter doesn't wobble when you shake the tin.

I can usually tell by the smell and the way it looks.

Enjoy.
