Peanut Butter Brownie Bites


I love mini desserts!  They are so cute, easy to make and you can pop one or two in your mouth and not feel too guilty about it.  The chocolate and peanut butter combo is one of our favorites in this house.  My husband and daughter have been known to down a package of Reese Cups in about two seconds.  I prefer to break off chunks of my dark chocolate bar and dip them in to the peanut butter jar ~ delish!
The last time I made brownies I decided to give them a little twist by adding some peanut butter and chopped Reese Cups.  They turned out super cute and yummy too.

Peanut Butter Brownie Bites
Recipe idea from BakedbyJoanna

1 box of your favorite Brownie Mix
Oil, egg & water required for brownie mix
Smooth Peanut Butter (I used Natural Jif)
Chopped Reese Cups

Mix brownies according to box directions or make your favorite recipe.
Spoon brownie mix into mini muffin pan and fill about half full. (I used my Pampered Chef pan)
Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 8 - 10 minutes.
After they have cooled a couple of minutes, take the back side of a 1/4 teaspoon and make a small hole in the center of each brownie.  Microwave about a 1/2 cup of peanut butter for about 20 seconds or so, until it is pourable.  You need to watch this because the peanut butter can burn quickly. Drizzle melted peanut butter on to each brownie and top with chopped Reese Cups.
Enjoy!
