While I'm not a very granola, crunchy, organic type of person, I've decided to attempt clean eating to correct some minor health issues that have popped up recently. Starting in January 2013, my family will attempt to rid our diet of preservatives, additives and other processed/junk food. Along with clean eating, I still want to save money, so my adventures will see what kind of deals I can get on natural foods.

Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Brownies
Chocolate Chip. Peanut Butter. Brownies.
Do I really need to say anything else?! ;)
I adapted these from a recipe for peanut butter chocolate chip cupcakes. I wasn't in the mood to make cupcakes or mess with frosting, so I just made them into brownies. Heavenly!
Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Brownies
1 cup unbleached all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
6 tbsp unsalted butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup smooth all natural peanut butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup milk
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Combine milk and vanilla in small bowl. Combine flour, baking powder and salt in bowl. Beat Butter and sugars in mixer until light and fluffy. Add eggs and blend until smooth. Slowly mix in peanut butter. Add in flour mixture and blend slowly. When fully incorporated, add milk mixture. Continue to blend slowly. Add chocolate chips and fold in by hand. Pour into greased 8x8 or 9x13 brownie pan and bake for 30-35 minutes until gold and brown on top. (The middle will be a little gooey, but will continue baking when you get them out...you don't want to burn the edges!)
