Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Blondies
Today is Peanut Butter Lovers Day. I am definitely a peanut butter lover. I love it in treats and I love it spread on sandwiches and I love it on a spoon in my mouth. These peanut butter chocolate chip blondies are a peanut butter lovers dream. They’re also a chocolate lovers dream since they have a good portion of chocolate chips in the batter. YUM YUM! I actually preferred these bars warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. They were good the next day too as a snack in my kids’ lunches.

Description
Peanut butter cookie bars with a plethora of chocolate chips. Eat them while their warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or eat them as a snack when their cooled.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
- 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 4 tsp vanilla
- 1/2 cup creamy or crunchy peanut butter
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1–2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (I used half mini chocolate chips and half regular)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350° F. Spray a 13 x 9 inch pan with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl whisk together the butter and sugar. Whisk in the eggs and vanilla until combined. Whisk in the peanut butter until combined.
- All at the same time add in the flour, baking powder and salt. Use a large spoon (like a spatula or wooden spoon) to fold the flour into the wet mixture.
- Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Scrape the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for about 30-35 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
- Serve the blondies hot with scoop of vanilla ice cream or let them cool completely in the pan for 2 hours and then cut them into squares and serve.

Very good but disappointing because I can’t taste the peanut butter at all. I had bittersweet and milk chocolate chips with n hand so I used them. Yum. I might try adding more peanut butter or substituting some peanut powder for some of the flour next time.

really? that is so weird! I tasted so much peanut butter in mine. Maybe add in peanuts as well?
I’d definitely eat them warm too. I bet they are delicious.
