Peanut Butter Blondies Recipe


This recipe is for those times one needs a bit of self-indulgence!

Inspired by my love for peanut butter

Preparation:  1 hour        Cook Time:  15 minutes        Serves: 8

Bars and Brownies

 

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Butter-flavored Crisco
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 cups brown sugar, firmly packed
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Frosting

  • 1 pound box powdered sugar (approximately 3 3/4 cups)
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened to room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/3 cup hot water

Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 350 degrees.  Grease a jelly roll pan.
  2. In a large bowl, beat together Crisco, peanut butter and brown sugar for about 3 minutes until well combined.  Add eggs and vanilla and beat until smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix together flour, baking powder and salt.  Stir  into batter.  Spread blondies evenly in prepared pan and bake for 15 minutes.  DO NOT OVERBAKE!
  4. To prepare frosting beat powdered sugar, peanut butter, butter, salt and vanilla together.  Add hot water, a bit at a time.  Beat until smooth.  Spread over Peanut Butter Blondies while still warm.
