Ingredients

• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• ½ cup (one stick) unsalted butter
• 4 eggs
• 1 cup sugar (I used Stevia instead)
• ½ cup cocoa powder
• ½ cup almond meal
• ½ tsp salt
• 2 tsp vanilla
• ½ cup creamy peanut butter
• About 12 miniature peanut butter cups, coarsely chopped

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a 13×9inch pan with parchment paper (or grease really, really well, though I’d recommend the parchment).
2. In a double boiler or a bowl set over a simmering pan of water,melt the butter, then add the chocolate chips, stirring until melted. Set aside tocool slightly.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar for a minute or two.
4. Add melted chocolate mixture a little at a time, whisking well after each addition.
5. Whisk in the cocoa powder, almond meal, salt, and vanilla.
6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
7. Place small dollops of the peanut butter over the batter and then create swirls with a butter knife or small spatula. Scatter the choppedpeanut butter cups over the top of the batter and lightly press in any larger chunks.
8. Bake at 350°F for 20-25 minutes, or until just set in the middle.
9. Cool completely in the pan before cutting.
