BROWNIES

1-1/4 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, melted
1-1/2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 eggs
1/4 cup peanut butter
1 cup milk chocolate morsels
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup salted peanuts


Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 13x9 baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. In medium bowl, using wire whisk, stir together flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside. In a large bowl, with a wire whisk, mix together melted butter, sugar and vanilla. Beat eggs, one at a time. Using a wooden spoon, stir in flour mixture until well blended. Separate half the batter (about 1-1/2 cups) to medium bowl. Mix in peanut butter. Stir in chocolate morsels and spread batter evenly in pan. Add cocoa powder to remaining batter; mix well. Stir in peanuts. Spoon chocolate batter over peanut butter layer and smooth top gently. Bake 25 to 30 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in pan on wire rack. Cut into 24 squares.
