Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 0.5 cup melted butter
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup flour
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1 tbsp red food coloring
  • 0.33 cup peanut butter

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a pan with parchment.
  2. Make the red velvet brownie batter and spread it into the pan.
  3. Warm the peanut butter slightly so it drizzles easily.
  4. Dollop it over the batter and swirl it through with a knife.
  5. Bake for 28 to 30 minutes until set.
  6. Cool before slicing into squares.

Notes

Creamy peanut butter swirls more smoothly than the chunky kind here.
