Grandma had quite the collection of dessert recipes. In fact it is almost endless. This is one I've prepared several times. You may either follow the brownie recipe that appears first, or start with a box mix. It's positively delicious either way.
Brownies
1 cup butter (melted)
2 cups sugar
8 Tbsp cocoa powder
4 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup flour
Soften butter. Stir in sugar, cocoa, eggs and vanilla. Mix well. Stir in salt, baking soda, and flour. Mix well. Pour into 9" x 9" pan and bake at 350 for 25 minutes. Brownies should still be moist in the center.
Topping
1 cup cold milk
1 pkg (3.4 oz) vanilla instant pudding
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 powdered sugar
1 1/2 cups whipped topping
3 squares semi-sweet baker's chocolate
As the brownies cool, beat the milk and the pudding with a whisk for 2 minutes. Add peanut butter and sugar and mix well.
Spread pudding mixture over the brownies.
Melt the baker's chocolate in a double boiler and then stir in the whipped topping. Spread over the pudding mixture and then refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.
Tips: To make this easier, I use Cool Whip
To change up the flavors, sometimes I'll use White Chocolate pudding instead of vanilla
