Ingredients
Scale
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional: a pinch of sea salt
Chocolate shavings or mini chocolate chips for topping
Chopped peanuts for crunch
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9-inch pie dish by greasing it lightly or lining it with parchment paper.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the sugar until well combined.
Whisk in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. Your mixture should look smooth and glossy!
Sift in the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Stir until just combined—don’t overmix; we want that fudgy texture!
Spread the brownie batter evenly in your prepared pie dish and pop it into the preheated oven. Bake for about 20-25 minutes.
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the dish on a wire rack.
In a large mixing bowl, mix together the creamy peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture in two or three additions.
Once the brownie base is completely cool, carefully spread the peanut butter mousse on top.
Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
