Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Brownies will be moist and fudge-like, so be careful not to over bake!

Smooth peanut butter over brownies evenly.
Cool completely before cutting into 20 squares.

Notes
You may see some butter come to the top of the brownies.
Gently pat the brownies with a paper towel if this happens Most of it will set in the brownies once they start to cool.Try melting the peanut butter in 30 second increments, stirring in-between, to prevent it from burning/clumping.
I cool these brownies quicker by placing them in the refrigerator.
I also store them in the refrigerator in an airtight container stacked on top of each other, with wax paper in-between.
