Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup Brownies Recipe

This brownies is a kind to die for, it is rich, decadent and full of the nutty brown butter aroma and flavour. And with the bits and pieces of peanut butter cups it is delicious.

Instead of peanut butter cups you could add any chopped chocolates as you like. M&M’s or chopped snickers would be great though.

Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..
