Tasty Tuesday


  
           I have a double feature for you today, a recipe and a giveaway to match! I've posted about our love for brownies before but with Valentines Day only 2 weeks away, I thought I'd share a peanut butter brownie recipe with you that I've been baking for decades. I stumbled on it one day when I didn't have any chocolate in the house( I was once poor like that) and the kids were wanting dessert that night, so I combed through my cookbooks and clippings and came across this little dandy.

Peanut Butter Brownies

1 3/4 c. peanut butter
1/3 c. butter
2 c. sugar
1. c. brown sugar
4 eggs
1 1/2 T. vanilla
3 c. flour
1 T. baking powder
1/2 t. salt
Combine butter and sugars. Blend in eggs. Add peanut butter and mix well. Add vanilla. Combine flour, baking powder, and salt to mixture. Mix well. Pour into a 9x13 pan. Bake at 350 for 25-35 min.
Topping:
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/4 c. milk
1/2 c. butter
1 c. peanuts (optional)
Cook sugar, butter and milk till it comes to a boil. Add peanuts to make a spread, frost after cooling.


   Now, I bake them for my hubby when he wants dessert! I like this recipe because it has a good peanut butter flavor and you can always add some chocolate chips to the mix, the mini ones would be perfect!
As for the giveaway, I had a email come through today about a brownie giveaway, these brownies have won awards they are that  good, but sad to say, I've never heard of them nor tasted them. But we have a chance to win some, just head over to Todays Giveaway and look up FairyTale Browines for the sweet offer! Good luck and happy baking!

    Peanut butter and brownies... together.... would make my mouth so happy.

    Bet hungry all day for raw cake batter. I've resisted baking a cake... coz I know what will happen. I'd eat all the batter and never bake the cake. egads.
