Have I ever mentioned that I used to never be a big fan of brownies?

I know, I know…crazy, right?

Well, let me clarify. I have always liked brownies, but when I was younger, I would gladly pass up brownies for a cookie, muffin, or just about any other sweet treat. I’ve also mentioned before that I don’t have the biggest sweet tooth, though my tastes have definitely evolved as I’ve gotten older.

Now, I eagerly look forward to munching on a donut, muffin, slice of cake, and brownies. Yes, brownies!

You may remember these Brownie Bites with Nutella Frosting from a few months ago. That was my second brownie recipe that I’ve shared on Pumpkin ‘N Spice, and probably one of my favorites. I mean, brownies…need I say more? I’m SO glad I came around to loving them!

And while homemade is always good, sometimes you just need something easy, yet delicious. After all, I’m all about the simple recipes around here (hence my motto at the top of the page: Where Easy Meets Delicious!).

You all know I love peanut butter, so it only seemed natural to combine it into this simple, one bowl, dessert. These Peanut Butter Swirl Brownies are loaded with flavor.

Like most of my recipes, these Peanut Butter Swirl Brownies are a breeze to whip up. The brownie mix is made in one bowl and then popped into the oven to bake.

Once the brownies have cooled, it’s time to swirl on some chocolate and peanut butter. Simply melt some chocolate wafer (or chips) in the microwave and then spread on top of the brownies. Then, it’s time for the peanut butter! Melt the peanut butter slightly in the microwave so that it’s easy to spread, and then drop by the spoonful on top of the chocolate. Swirl with a knife and then top with peanut butter cups. Easy peasy, right?

One bite and you’ll fall in love with the rich chocolate and peanut butter explosion. The soft and chewy texture, combined with the decadent flavor equals pure perfection. Easy to make and even better to eat, these Peanut Butter Swirl Brownies will be your new, go-to dessert!
