🍫 Brownie Lover's Peanut Butter Pizza 🥜
🧾 Ingredients:
For the Fudgy Brownie Crust:
1 package fudge-style brownie mix
Oil, eggs, and water as required on the package
½ tsp pure vanilla extract (optional but recommended)
For the Creamy Peanut Butter Drizzle:
½ cup smooth peanut butter
2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
1–2 tbsp milk (as needed for drizzling consistency)
For the Tasty Toppings:
½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
¼ cup chopped roasted peanuts
¼ cup mini peanut butter cups, halved
Optional: Crushed pretzels for extra crunch
🔪 Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 12-inch round pizza pan or baking sheet.
Prepare the brownie mix according to the package instructions, adding vanilla extract if desired for richer flavor.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly to form a thick, even crust.
Bake for 18–20 minutes or until the center is just set—do not overbake; you want it moist and fudgy.
Let the brownie cool completely in the pan, either at room temperature or in the fridge to speed things up.
In a small bowl, whisk together peanut butter and honey until smooth and creamy. Add 1–2 tablespoons of milk to thin the mixture into a pourable drizzle.
Spread or drizzle the peanut butter mixture evenly over the cooled brownie crust.
Sprinkle the chocolate chips, chopped peanuts, and mini peanut butter cups over the top. Press gently so toppings adhere.
Optionally add crushed pretzels for a salty crunch.
Slice into wedges and serve immediately. For a firmer texture, chill in the refrigerator for 15–20 minutes before serving.
