Ingredients

Brownies:

1 cup blanched almond flour 112g
½ cup powdered sugar-free sweetener 96g
⅓ cup Dutch cocoa powder 27g
¼ tsp baking powder 1g
¼ tsp salt 1.5g
6 Tbsp unsalted butter melted (84g)
2 large eggs
½ cup sugar-free chocolate chips 112g
6 Tbsp unsweetened creamy peanut butter 96g

Classic Peanut Butter Ganache:

⅓ cup heavy cream 80ml
⅓ cup sugar-free chocolate chips 75g
2 Tbsp unsweetened creamy peanut butter 32g

Dairy-Free Peanut Butter Ganache:

¼ cup unsweetened dairy-free milk 60ml
2 Tbsp dairy-free butter 28g
⅓ cup sugar-free dairy-free chocolate chips (75g)
2 Tbsp unsweetened creamy peanut butter 32g

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line an 8x8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper.
Stir all dry brownie ingredients together in a bowl. Add melted butter and eggs, and stir until combined. Fold in chocolate chips.
Spread about 1⁄2 of brownie batter evenly into pan. Drop 4 Tbsp of peanut butter in blobs on top of batter. Spread remaining 1/2 of brownie batter on top of the peanut butter, then top again with remaining peanut butter.
Bake for 15-18 minutes. Allow to cool.
Top with peanut butter ganache, peanut butter cookie dough, and an extra drizzle of peanut butter, if desired.
Slice, and enjoy!
To make ganache, Heat heavy cream in a small saucepan over low-medium heat. As soon as cream begins to bubble slightly, add chocolate chips and peanut butter, and remove from heat. Stir constantly until completely melted and smooth. Allow to cool.
Ganache will thicken as it cools. Place in the fridge for a few minutes to speed up the thickening process, if desired. After spreading over brownies or cupcakes, place in the refrigerator to set.
For dairy-free option, add milk and butter alternatives to the saucepan instead of the cream, and follow all other instructions.
