🍫 Brownie Lover's Peanut Butter Pizza 🥜
Ingredients:
For the brownie crust:
1 box of brownie mix (or your favorite homemade recipe)
Ingredients listed on the box (typically eggs, oil, and water)
For the peanut butter topping:
1 cup creamy peanut butter
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the chocolate drizzle:
½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
For the toppings:
¼ cup chopped peanuts
¼ cup mini chocolate chips
Optional: sprinkles or candy pieces for extra flair
Instructions:
Prepare the brownie crust:
Preheat your oven according to the brownie mix package instructions. Grease a 12-inch round pizza pan or line it with parchment paper. Prepare the brownie batter as directed on the box and spread it evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for the time specified on the box, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the brownie cool completely in the pan.
Make the peanut butter topping:
In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, softened butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and spreadable. Spread the peanut butter mixture evenly over the cooled brownie crust, leaving a small border around the edges to mimic a pizza crust.
Prepare the chocolate drizzle:
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and vegetable oil. Microwave in 20–30 second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the peanut butter layer using a spoon or piping bag.
Add the toppings:
Sprinkle the chopped peanuts and mini chocolate chips evenly over the chocolate drizzle. Add sprinkles or candy pieces if desired for an extra festive touch.
Chill and serve:
Place the pizza in the refrigerator for 15–20 minutes to allow the toppings to set. Once firm, slice into wedges and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
