CHOCOLATE, PEANUT BUTTER, BUTTERSCOTCH BROWNIES
These Chocolate Peanut Butter Butterscotch Brownies were an experiment that turned out amazing! Mom was in the kitchen and just thought.. “lets try this” and she did and they may be one of the best brownies we have ever made!
What makes these Chocolate Peanut Butter Butterscotch Brownies?
Well it’s just that.. these brownies have ALL the ingredients, including marshmallows. It’s a wild combination but it just works. The butterscotch chips adds so much to the texture and then you add the marshmallows. Mom really out did herself with this one!
Lets take a look at the ingredients:
Yes.. these brownies start with a brownie mix.. which is honestly what makes them so fun! You start with the mix and just add so many great ingredients to take this brownie mix to a WHOLE new level.
- Duncan Hines Chewy Fudge Premium Brownie Mix (family size)
- Kroger Roasted Peanuts and Honey Crunchy Peanut Butter (Can use just regular crunchy peanut butter)
- Chocolate Chips
- Butterscotch Chips
- Walnuts
- Miniature Marshmallows
Now if those ingredients weren’t gooey enough.. we are going to top these with a frosting! It’s the best frosting and really completes these brownies. After the frosting we added chopped walnuts just for the pictures but you can just add the walnuts to the brownies.. either works. !
Recipe Notes:
- These brownies are better after the frosting has set up so make them a few hours in advance.
- These are just as good the next day, so you can easily make them a day a head of time.
- You can switch out pecans for the walnuts or leave the nuts off all together.
- We have only made it with this brownie mix but I am sure any brownie mix will work. You just want it to be a family size mix, that fits a 9X13.
