Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup peanut butter (smooth or crunchy) Use room temperature for easier mixing.
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg Use room temperature.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour Can substitute with gluten-free flour blend.
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup boxed brownie mix Helps maintain streaks; avoid homemade batter.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, sugar, egg, and vanilla, mixing until smooth and glossy.
  3. Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until the dough comes together without dry streaks.
  4. Gently fold in the brownie mix, stopping as soon as it’s distributed to maintain streaks.
Baking
  1. Use a tablespoon or small cookie scoop to portion dough onto the prepared sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
  2. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until edges are set and centers look slightly soft.
  3. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.
