Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup milk
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
• 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 cup boiling water
• 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• Whipped cream, for serving (optional)
• Chocolate shavings, for garnish (optional)

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch square baking dish.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Stir well to combine.
3. Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined.
4. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared baking dish.
5. In a separate bowl, mix together the peanut butter, brown sugar, and cocoa powder until smooth.
6. Drop spoonfuls of the peanut butter mixture onto the batter, covering the entire surface.
7. Pour the boiling water over the top, but do not stir. The water will create a pudding-like layer as the cake bakes.
8. Sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the top.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top of the cake is set and the edges are slightly crispy.
10. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving warm.
11. If desired, serve with whipped cream and garnish with chocolate shavings.
12. Enjoy!
