Nine out of ten people love chocolate, and the tenth people, well they are liars.

Seriously though, have you ever met anyone who doesn’t like chocolate? No, me neither. And you want to know what’s better than chocolate? Brownies. And what’s better than brownies?

Nothing?

These brownies are super simple, all you’ll need is 8 basic ingredients and about 45 minutes.

You’re going to LOVE these. They’re chocolatey, peanut buttery, easy, delicious and chocolatey (oh wait, did I already mention that?).
