Yield: 1 (8-inch) dish or about 10 brownies
 
Ingredients
Brownies:
  • Canola oil, to grease the dish
  • 4 oz dark chocolate, melted in a microwave or double boiler
  • ¾ cup (150 g) sugar
  • ¼ cup (60 ml) canola oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (128 g) all-purpose flour
  • ⅓ cup (30 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup (130 g) chunky peanut butter
  • 4 Kit Kat Chunky bars, chopped
Peanut Butter Topping:
  • 3 oz (85 g) white chocolate, melted in a microwave or double boiler
  • ¼ cup (65 g) chunky peanut butter
  • ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon milk
Chocolate Drizzle:
  • 1 oz (30 g) dark chocolate, melted in a microwave or double boiler
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350F. Line an 8-inch round or 8-inch square dish with foil and brush the inside of the foil with canola oil; set aside.
  2. Add the melted dark chocolate to a large bowl and whisk in the sugar and oil; thoroughly whisk in the eggs and vanilla. Add the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt, and stir to combine.
  3. Transfer ½ cup of batter to a medium bowl and stir to combine it with ½ cup chunky peanut butter (it will be really thick); set aside.
  4. Pour the rest of the chocolate batter into the prepared dish and spread it out evenly. Sprinkle the chopped Kit Kat bars on top. Dot the peanut butter/chocolate batter all around the top.
  5. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with just a couple crumbs, about 25 to 30 minutes. Cool completely.
  6. For the peanut butter topping, combine all ingredients and drizzle it onto the cooled brownies. Transfer to the fridge for 10 minutes so the peanut butter mixture can harden.
  7. Once the peanut butter mixture is hard, drizzle on the dark chocolate, and then transfer it back to the fridge for another 10 minutes for the dark chocolate to harden. Cut into pieces and serve.
  8. Store leftovers refrigerated, and let them sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving.
