Brownie Peanut Butter Cups

I can't figure out why the font and colors are strange on this post!  sorry!  Please fix it if you know how!

I got this recipe from here.  I love this blog!  She has so many good recipes and so many that I want to try!

Here is the link for this recipe!

Brownie Peanut Butter Cups

3/4 Cups Sugar
1/4 Cup Butter, softened
1 T water
3/4 Cup semi-sweet Chocolate Chips
1 Large egg
1/2 t vanilla extract
1 Cup flour
1/4 t baking soda
1/2 Cup peanut butter chips plus about 1/3 cup more for garnishing
1/2 Cup semi-sweet chocolate chips plus about 1/3 cup more for garnishing 
3/4 Cup creamy peanut butter


Preheat oven to 350.  Spray or grease 12 muffin cups.

In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine sugar, butter, and water.  Microwave on high for 1 minute or until butter is melted.  Stir in 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips until melted.

Stir in egg and vanilla.  Add flour and baking soda, stir until blended.  Allow to cool to room temperature.  Stir in 1/2 each peanut butter chips and semi-sweet chocolate chips.  Spoon batter by heaping tablespoonfuls into muffin cups.

Bake for 13-15 minutes or until top is set and a tooth pick inserted into the center comes out slightly wet. Place on wire rack.  Centers of brownies will fall upon cooling, if not tap center with the back of a spoon to make a hole.

Place peanut butter in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 45 seconds, and stir.  While brownies are still hot spoon about a tablespoon of peanut butter into the center of each brownie.  Top with semi-sweet chocolate chips and peanut butter chips.   Cool completely in pan. (I don't usually let my cool too much because I like them more when they are still gooey!)
