Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

Brownie Batter

• 1 batch of your favorite brownie batter (approximately 1 box or homemade equivalent)

Stuffing

• 10–12 Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups (standard size)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Brownie Batter: Prepare your favorite brownie batter according to the package or recipe instructions until smooth and well combined.
2. Pour Batter into Pan: Lightly grease an 8×8 inch baking pan and pour the brownie batter evenly into the pan, spreading it with a spatula to create an even layer.
3. Add Reese’s Cups: Place the Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups evenly spaced on top of the batter to ensure each brownie portion will have a stuffed center.
4. Bake the Brownies: Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the edge comes out with moist crumbs but not wet batter, and the brownies are set around the Reese’s cups.
5. Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting to keep the Reese’s cups intact and enjoy your rich, chocolate-peanut butter stuffed treat.

Notes

• You can use homemade or store-bought brownie batter depending on your preference.
• For gooier brownies, reduce baking time by a few minutes but keep an eye to avoid undercooking.
• Make sure to cool the brownies fully to prevent the Reese’s cups from melting out when slicing.
• Avoid overfilling the pan to keep the stacking even and the filling centered in each brownie piece.
