Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups are one of our favorite sweet candy treats around here. So, add stuff them inside brownies and oh my goodness, you have a decadent dessert! Really, don’t they look sinfully delicious?!

Here’s the recipe:
Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Brownies
Ingredients
Brownie Ingredients
- ¾ C flour
- 2 C semisweet chocolate
- 2 Tbs cocoa powder
- 4 Tbs butter
- 3 eggs
- 1 ½ C sugar
- ½ C packed brown sugar
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- ½ tsp. salt
- 6- 8 packages of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups cold
Frosting Ingredients
- ¼ C butter softened
- 1/3 C cocoa
- 2 C powdered sugar
- 1 tsp Vanilla
- 3 Tbs milk
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line your 8x8 or 9x9 baking dish with foil and coat with a non-stick spray.
- Combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
- In a microwave safe bowl, melt the butter and chocolate in 1520 second increments, stirring until completely melted. Let cool 2-3 minutes.
- In another bowl, combine the eggs, sugar and vanilla. Add in the melted chocolate mixture. Then slowly add in the flour and cocoa mixture, mix well.
- Pour enough of the batter into the bottom of your baking dish just to cover the bottom. Spread with a spoon or spatula if needed.
- Lay the Reese's PB cups on top of the batter about 1 centimeter a part – you will need about 8 PB cups for the entire pan. Once all the candy cups are in place, pour the rest of the batter over the top and bake for 25-30 minutes.
- Let the brownies cool completely.
- While the brownies are cooling, prepare the frosting.
- Combine the cocoa powder, butter, sugar and vanilla. Slowly add in the milk 1 tbs. at a time.You may want to add in more milk depending on how thick you like your frosting. Using a hand-mixer, beat on high for 23 minutes.
- Once the brownies have cooled completely, lift the foil out of the pan (love the super easy cleanup!) Evenly spread the chocolate frosting over the top of the brownies.
- Cut brownies into *12 squares. Cut the rest of your Peanut Butter Cups bars into quarters and gently press one into the top of each brownie. **You could double the servings by cutting the the pan into 24 smaller size squares if desired.
- Store in an airtight container up to 1 week.
