Stuffed Peanut Butter Blondies

Okay everyone, I finally have a recipe for you. And boy is it worth the wait.

When I pulled the pan out of the oven I was worried this recipe was yet another failure because these are ugly.

See? Look at that ugliness!

Until you cut them…..

…and then they look amazing. These blondies are peanut butter flavored and stuffed with chocolate cream filled cookies and chocolate covered peanut butter filled pretzels. YUM!

Do yourself a favor and make these. Today.

Stuffed Peanut Butter Blondies

Makes 16 blondies

Ingredients:

For bottom layer:
3/4 cup natural creamy peanut butter (stirred really well)
1/3 cup canola oil
1 cup light brown sugar
1/4 cup+ 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste (or extract)
1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon baking powder

For filling:
9 chocolate cream filled chocolate cookies (I used Newman O's)
2 cups chocolate covered peanut butter filled pretzels

For top layer:
1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk

Directions:

Heat oven to 350. Grease an 8x8 pan.

In a large bowl, mix the peanut butter, oil, and sugar on medium for 2 minutes. Next, mix in the milk and vanilla. Add in the flour, salt and baking powder and mix until incorporated.

Spread 1/2 of the mixture in the pan. Top with the 9 oreos (I laid mine in a 3x3 pattern) and sprinkle with pretzels.

Mix in the 1/4 cup milk to the other half of the batter. Pour the batter evenly over the top. Bake for 25 minutes.

    Well, so what if it’s ugly. The ugliest food usually tastes the best, at least that’s what I’ve heard anyways. ;)
