Indulgent Peanut Butter and Bacon Brownies

Today, I am excited to share with you a decadent and unexpected dessert that combines the rich flavors of peanut butter and the salty crunch of bacon. This unique recipe is perfect for those days when you’re craving something sweet and savory at the same time.

Ingredients:

  • 200g dark chocolate (70% cocoa)
  • 150g butter
  • 200g sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 200g peanut butter
  • 100g flour
  • 150g bacon bits

Kitchen Tools:

  • mixing bowl
  • whisk
  • saucepan
  • brownie pan

To start, preheat your oven to 180°C and line a brownie pan with parchment paper. In a saucepan, melt the dark chocolate and butter together until smooth. Remove from heat and whisk in the sugar until fully combined. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Next, stir in the peanut butter until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Slowly fold in the flour until just combined. Gently fold in the bacon bits, reserving a handful to sprinkle on top.

Pour the batter into the prepared brownie pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle the remaining bacon bits on top for an extra crunch. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Once baked, let the brownies cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before slicing into squares. The rich chocolate, creamy peanut butter, and salty bacon come together to create a truly indulgent treat that will please your taste buds in every bite.

The approximate total weight of the cooked dish is 1000g, with 12 servings. Each serving weighs approximately 83g, with an estimated calorie count of 300 per serving.

One unique tip for this recipe is to sprinkle sea salt on top of the brownies before baking for an extra burst of flavor that enhances the savory elements of the dish.

I hope you give these indulgent peanut butter and bacon brownies a try and enjoy the surprising combination of flavors. Feel free to customize this recipe with your favorite nuts or toppings to make it your own. Happy baking!
