Nutter Butter Slutty Brownies |
Prep time: 25 mins
Cook time: 30 mins
Total time: 55 mins
- Crust:
- ⅔ cup creamy peanut butter
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 egg white
- ½ cup chocolate chips
- 12½ Nutter Butter Cookies
- Top layer:
- 1¼ cups all purpose flour
- 1½ teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
- 3 tablespoons cream cheese, room temperature
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- For the crust:
- Preheat oven to 350°. Line an 8” x 8” baking pan with aluminum foil. Set aside.
- Mix together peanut butter, sugar and egg white in a medium size bowl. Stir in chocolate chips. Transfer to prepared pan and spread evenly over the bottom.
- Line the Nutter Butter Cookies over the crust, 5 cookies coming in towards the middle and an additional 2½ cookies in between the two columns. Set aside.
- For the top layer:
- Whisk together flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
- Place butter, cream cheese, brown sugar and sugar into a mixing bowl. Beat until smooth and creamy, scraping down the bowl as needed. Blend in egg and vanilla. Mix in dry ingredients. Spoon over Nutter Butter Cookies and spread evenly.
- Bake at 350° for 30 minutes. The edges will crack and the center will still feel a bit soft to the touch. Remove from oven and cool completely before cutting.
- Once cool, lift the foil out of the baking pan and place on a cutting board. Peel the foil off the sides and cut into bars.
- Betsy's tidbit:
- Nutter Butter Slutty Blondies are delicious at room temperature or cold.
