Peanut Brownie
8 servings
45 minutes
Brownies with peanuts are a refined dessert with a rich chocolate flavor and nutty notes. This recipe is a modern take on the classic brownie, which first appeared in the USA in the late 19th century. The deep, velvety chocolate taste intertwines with crunchy salted peanuts, creating a balance between sweetness and slight saltiness. The chocolate and peanut butter glaze adds a special silkiness and completes the harmony of flavors. Brownies can be served as a standalone dessert, complemented by a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a cup of freshly brewed coffee. Ideal as a cozy treat for home evenings or an impressive finish to a festive dinner.
