This was so good. We are not much for frosting but this upped the brownies to a higher level. Gooey, tasty and difficult to stay away from! Highly recommended.<br/>Thanks for posting.<br/>Made for PAC, Spring 2013.

Mmmm, awesome peanut butter brownies made ooey-er and gooey-er with the peanut butter/chocolate frosting. How can you go wrong? I halved the recipe to make a 8x8 sized pan and it worked out perfectly. Great recipe Brooke, thanks for sharing! Made for Pick-A-Chef Fall 2011.
