Instructions
To make the brownies
Preheat oven to 325. Butter a 9x9 square pan.
Melt butter and chocolate in a small saucepan over low heat.
In a different bowl, whisk eggs, sugar, salt, & vanilla.
Slowly whisk in the melted chocolate and butter.
Pour batter into prepared pan.
Bake the brownies for 25-30 minutes, until a toothpick inserted about 2 inches from the sides is clean. (Be very careful not to overbake!)
Let the brownies cool on a wire rack.
To make the peanut butter frosting
Using an electic or stand mixer, beat the butter and peanut butter on low-medium until smooth.
Slowly add the powdered sugar a little bit at a time until it's all combined.
Add salt & vanilla. Slowly add in milk.
Increase the speed to high and beat until well combined and smooth. (Scrape the sides of the bowl halfway through).
Let the brownies cool completely before frosting. Once the brownies are cool, spread the frosting evenly over the brownies.
Top the frosting evenly with the baking chips. Cut, serve and ENJOY!
