Know what’s really delicious?  Chocolate.  Know what’s even better?  Adding peanut butter to the party.  Combine both of them together in a brownie and it’s close to heaven.  If you’re my husband, you take that brownie and add a scoop (or 3!) of vanilla bean ice cream and you’ll be calling me all kinds of wonderful names!

It feels weird to call this a recipe, but it is.  It’s a way of jazzing up regular ol’ brownie mix brownies just by adding some peanut butter to the party!  Peanut butter and chocolate are a classic combination, sure to please the family.  Or co-workers.  Or neighbors.  Or strangers.  Anyone that you want to impress!

I, of course, make a double batch in my jelly-roll pan and it’s easy to do.  Don’t have a half sheet baking sheet?  Here’s the one that I have and LOVE!  I love that it has a lid, which makes it very easy for transporting your baked goods.

Don’t want to make THAT many brownies?  That’s okay – I’ve included directions for a normal 9×13 pan.  But consider the half baking sheet!  These brownies freeze very well.  Once their cooled, I’ll cut and wrap individual servings (which, for my husband is 2 brownies) in plastic wrap and then stick all of them into a freezer-safe gallon bag.  He’ll pull out a serving, heat it up in the microwave and add vanilla ice cream.  He loves it.  And that helps him love me!
