I made these to take to a get together with my teenager. Not only did they love them but one parent told me her daughter hated peanut butter but loved these brownies. I basically followed the recipe only I used lite butter and cream cheese and dark chocolate chips. These were great and I came home with an empty dish. 5 stars for taste and ease of making,a great recipe. Thanks for posting.

I am a third grade teacher in Eau Claire, WI. I love running and reading, (not at the same time, of course :) I was just married this summer (2005) so now my husband gets to be my guinea pig for trying new recipes. My favorite cookbook is one my sister made me for a wedding gift. It has recipes contributed by my husband's relatives and my relatives. I have already posted a few recipes from it and I'm sure their will be more to come.
