I've done it. I created the best dessert ever.
My friends, let me introduce you to my Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Stuffed Brookie Bars.
How quarantine treating ya?
Considering my last three recipes are bread, pizza and dessert, I'll let you take a gander at how I'm doing.
Just when I proclaim to myself "this morning is going so good!", all hell breaks loose and someone {sometimes me} is in tears. It's just HARD. When you have kids who are used to the structure of school, their friends, having teachers that aren't their Mom, recess and just normal socialization....we each seem to have a "moment" throughout the day.
Enter in these brookie bars.
Cookie dough, peanut butter and chocolate make everything better. P.S. - - > a "brookie" is a combination of a a cookie and a brownie. Just wanted to clarify that.
Moving on.
It was again one of those "weeks". My handy dandy planner {that is kinda my bible} is no longer filled with social obligations or ball games. It is now filled with Google Meet video calls {for three kids}, assignment deadlines and well, that is it.
No haircuts or oil changes or weekend trips.
Just school.
Oh and well, blog recipe days - which have you noticed is always Thursday? I'm trying to be consistent with that this year, then you just know what to expect.
So today, this wonderful Thursday, I give you my Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Stuffed Brookie Bars. You can thank the Easter Bunny for these. The hubs and kids got me flowers and a big 'ol bag of Reese's...so why not do some baking with them?
I love me a layered dessert.
One that has multiple flavors and textures. In this one the bottom layer is a chocolate chip cookie, the middle layer are Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and the top layer is a fudgy brownie.
Should I keep going?
All three bake together like a dream. A firmer cooker, a melty peanut butter cup and a super rich brownie. Grab a glass of milk! You'll need it.
I'm imagining myself making these for YEARS to come. My family fought over them {a good fight, not like our other daily fights} and proclaimed it one of the best desserts I've ever made. Which is saying a lot, as I bake a LOT of desserts.
I cannot wait to hear about these being baked up in your house. What else do we have to do right now? NOTHING. We have nothing.
If you don't trust yourself with the whole pan {18 bars}....keep half and freeze half. Or drop off half to another friend with a sweet tooth. They will rejoice! I cannot find the proper words to tell you how rich and delicous they are.
Tag me on social media if you make them!
