Chocolate Peanut Butter Passion Bars




If you are like me and most of the world you enjoy the classic combination of chocolate and peanut butter. These sweet treats are in that category. The best part of these are you can make them for a last minute function, and chances are you already have everything on hand.




INGREDIENTS


1/3 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
1 pouch chocolate brownie mix (9x13 size)
1 cup peanuts, chopped (I omitted these)
14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

DIRECTIONS


Preheat oven to 350. Lightly grease a 9x13 pan.

In a medium bowl, stir together the oil and eggs. Add the brownie mix and peanuts; stir until moistened. Press half of the brownie mixture into the pan (use your hands - it's way easier); reserve the other half for the topping.

To make the filling, stir the sweetened condensed milk and peanut butter in a medium bowl until smooth. Spread it evenly over the brownie layer in the pan.

Drop rounded teaspoonfuls of the reserved brownie mixture over the peanut butter layer.

Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the top is set. Cool thoroughly before cutting.
