Ingredients

  • 1 Pillsbury Boxed Brownie Mix for an 8x8 or 9x9 pan + ingredients called for on the box*
  • 2/3 cup Pillsbury™ Peanut Butter Frosting, divided

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven according to package directions and spray an 8x8 or 9x9 pan with non-stick cooking spray or line with parchment paper.
  • Mix brownies following package directions and transfer to baking pan.
  • Use 1/3 cup of Pillsbury™ Peanut Butter Frosting to add dots over the top of the brownie batter and swirl with a knife.
  • Bake and then cool according to the package directions.
  • Once cool, if desired, spread the other half of Pillsbury™ Peanut Butter Frosting over the top. I also melted about 2 tablespoons chocolate chips in the microwave to drizzle over the top.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to a few days. Refrigerate to keep longer.

Notes

* I used PURELY SIMPLE® Chocolate Chunk Brownie Mix.
