We know that allergies are on the rise, but for those who can indulge there isn’t
much better in our eyes than peanut butter, particularly when it comes to us in 
the form of **Peanut Butter Chocolate Brownies**. These treats have it all: the 
nutty flavours of peanut butter, the rich indulgence of chocolate. They’re just 
perfect.

Even better is that these brownies are super easy to make, and can be whipped together
in just a few minutes if you have a craving for something guilty, or if you’re catering
for kiddies or an event. They’re a guaranteed hit with lovers of both peanut butter,
and of chocolate.

### Ingredients

 * 250 grams Crunchy peanut butter
 * 200 grams Dark chocolate bar-broken up into pieces
 * 280 grams Light brown soft sugar
 * 3 Large Eggs
 * 120 grams Self-raising flour
 * 0.75 cup Dark Chocolate buds-optional

[[

### Directions

 * Preheat your oven to 180 degrees (160 for fan forced) and line a 25cm square 
   baking tin with baking paper. Also set aside 80g of the peanut butter to top 
   the brownies.
 * In a pan melt together the remaining peanut butter, the dark chocolate bar and
   the sugar in a pan, stirring regularly. Continue until the the sugar has just
   about meted. Then turn of the heat and allow to cool.
 * Once slightly cooled, use a wooden spoon to beat the eggs in one at a time. Then
   stir in the flour and combine well. Pour this mixture into the prepared tin.
 * Melt the rest of the peanut butter in the microwave on high for about 45 seconds,
   or in a pan, until it is nice and runny. Drizzle the melted peanut butter over
   the brownie.
 * Bake for about 30 minutes or until a crust has formed on the outsides of the 
   brownie but the middle still seems a little undercooked. Sprinkle chocolate buds
   over the top if you want.
