If I hear peanut butter and chocolate in the same sentence, I am all over it. My mouth starts salivating instantly. 🙂
I also love blondies- they are like a thick, chewy cookie- so why not put all these things together and make the perfect dessert?
Between peanut butter in the batter and peanut butter chips, there is a little bit of a peanut butter overload – which makes them amazing. You could totally do without the peanut butter chips and double up on chocolate chips if you like. There is definitely no wrong way to make these!
Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Blondies Recipe
Between peanut butter in the batter and peanut butter chips, there is a little bit of a peanut butter overload – which makes them amazing.
Serving
Ingredients
- 2 cups light brown sugar
- ½ cup butter, melted
- ½ cup peanut butter
- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup peanut butter chips
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray a 9x13" baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, beat brown sugar, butter, and peanut together until creamy and smooth. Mix in eggs and vanilla. Add flour, baking powder, and salt. Fold in chips and spread into baking dish (blondie dough can sometimes be thick and sticky, so I like to spray my hands with non-stick cooking spray then use my fingers to push the dough to the edges of the pan).
- Bake for about 28-32 minutes (I like my blondies to be a little under-done, so I bake them less. However, if you prefer them chewy, cook them longer. It's totally a preference thing). Remove from oven and let cool.
- Cut into bars and serve.
Notes
- Optional Drizzle: additional chocolate chips and peanut butter to drizzle on top of blondies - about 3 tablespoons of each
- Optional Drizzle Instructions: While the blondies cool, melt additional chocolate chips in the microwave (I put them in a microwave safe bowl, heated for 45 seconds, stirred, heated for 45 more seconds, and stirred until smooth and completely melted). Do the same with the peanut butter. Using a cereal spoon, scoop up some melted chocolate and drizzle over the entire pan of blondies (I just went back and forth until it was covered). Repeat with the melted peanut butter and let cool.

Peanut butter and chocolate will never ever get old. These look amazing. Good luck tomorrow!!
I stumbled upon you all on Facebook and have thoroughly enjoyed making many of your recipes over the last year! I just ordered two copies of your second book, one for myself (of course!) and one for my mother-in-law. I look forward to the 12 Days of Christmas!! Good luck!!!
One suggestion or request, I have a VERY stubborn two year old little girl. Do you have any recipe ideas or suggestions for making meals with veggies hidden in them???
These look delicious! I have been craving peanut butter bars lately. Your cookbook looks awesome! Best of luck on making the list.
