World's Best Brownies

This is my favorite thing to make! Sooo yummy!

Duncan Hines Double Chocolate brownie mix, prepared according to directions. Any brownie mix may be used, but this is my personal favorite for this particular recipe.

8 mini Reeses peanut butter cups

rubber spatula

8x8 pan

Cutco Spatula Spreader, Trimmer, or Pizza Cutter

Optional: confectioner's sugar

1. Prepare brownie mix according to package directions.

2. Spread brownie mix in 8X8 pan.

3. Push peanut butter cups into brownie mix so that the mix comes up over the edges, spaced evenly, so that when you cut the brownies into 8 squares the peanut butter cups should be in the center of each brownie.

4. If necessary, use a spatula to smooth brownie mix over the top of each peanut butter cup, so that they are completely hidden and batter looks smooth and even.

5. Set oven to approx. 5 degrees lower than requested on box, bake for shortest time mentioned.

6. Cool 5-10 minutes and serve immediately, covering any leftovers right away to preserve "fudginess." Use Cutco Spatula Spreader to cut and serve. Trimmer or Pizza Cutter will also cut well but are not as awesome for serving. For cakier brownies, leave uncovered and allow to cool completely. Optional: sprinkle tops of brownies with confectioner's sugar!
