Peanut Butter Ribboned Fudgies
Very few taste combinations are so readily embraced as chocolate
and peanut butter. Not only are these very rich brownies one
of the best tasting things in the universe, the contrast of
the peanut butter and chocolate is very striking and elegant.
They make very attractive gifts, and are the perfect addition
to any cookie tray. That is, if they make it that far.
Fudgies
3/4 cup unsalted butter
3 ounces unsweetened baking chocolate, chopped
3 large eggs
1 1/3 cups dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
Peanut Butter Ribbon
1 cup peanut butter
1/3 cup sugar
4 teaspoons flour
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
8 tablespoons light cream
Fudgies:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and lightly grease and flour
a 9 by 13 inch baking pan. Melt the butter and chocolate in
a microwave or above a double boiler until smooth. Set aside
to cool slightly. In a large bowl mix together the eggs, brown
sugar, and vanilla. In a small bowl whisk the flour, baking
powder, salt, and cinnamon. Gradually stir the cooled chocolate
mixture into the egg mixture until well blended. Slowly add
the flour mixture and mix well. Pour the batter into the prepared
pan.
Peanut Butter Ribbon:
Beat together in a small bowl peanut butter, sugar, flour,
cinnamon, and cream until well blended. Place in a pastry
bag or plastic bag and using a medium tip, or by snipping
off a corner, squeeze lines on the brownies paralell to the
short side of the pan until you have used up all of the peanut
butter mixture. Take the edge of a spoon and or spatula and
draw through the lines perpendicularly, almost touching the
bottom of the pan with the spoon. Move over 1 inch and repeat,
starting at the opposite side of the pan to get ribbons that
bend in opposite waves. Repeat until the whole pan is ribboned.
Bake for about 25 minutes, or until the brownies are firm.
Cool completely in the pan before cutting into desired shapes.
Store in an airtight container or freeze.
