Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/4 cup softened butter
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup melted butter

Instructions
- In one bowl, beat together peanut butter, softened butter, and brown sugar until fluffy. Mix in one egg and vanilla. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt; blend into the wet mixture until just combined.
- For the brownie dough, whisk melted butter and white sugar in a separate bowl. Stir in cocoa powder, then mix in an egg and vanilla. Fold in additional flour, baking powder, salt, and chocolate chips until no dry streaks remain.
- Chill both doughs in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Scoop portions of each dough side by side on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Swirl together using a toothpick.
- Bake for 9–11 minutes until tops are lightly crackly; centers should remain soft. Cool on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack.
