How To Make delightfully sinful brownies
-
Step 1Spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray, set aside. Preheat oven to 350 degree F. In a medium sized microwave safe bowl, add 1 cup butter and 1/3 cup cocoa. I start with 1 minute and check to see if butter is melted. Continue in 30 second intervals, until it is. Mix with a whisk and set aside to cool.
-
Step 2In another bowl, beat sugar, eggs and vanilla. In another bowl, blend flour and salt.
-
Step 3Once cocoa mixture is cool enough, add the flour mixture to it, and whisk until thoroughly blended. Add this mixture to the sugar mixture. Stir, well until all is incorporated.
-
Step 4Pour into the prepared baking dish and bake for 25 - 30 minutes or until pick comes out clean.
-
Step 5While hot, spread peanut butter evenly over the top as it melts. Cool completely.
-
Step 6When cake is cool, make topping. In a large saucepan, add butter, milk, marshmallows, and cocoa. Stir until butter and marshmallows are melted and everything is thoroughly blended. Add the salt and vanilla.
-
Step 7Beat in the confectioners' sugar until smooth. Spread over the cooled cake and peanut butter.
-
Step 8Drizzle with caramel and sprinkle with pecans. Enjoy!
