Peanut Butter Brownies

These are really, really rich.  Not to say they weren't delicious, but if you are like my husband and don't like chocolate/rich foods, then probably skip over this one.  It is to die for though.  Enjoy!

Peanut Butter Brownies
Recipe by: Something Swanky
16 miniature Reese's Cups
1 recipe your favorite prepared brownie batter (boxed or homemade)
12 ounce jar Hershey's Hot Fudge Sauce
1/2 cup peanut butter (any), divided
Preheat oven according to brownie recipe (on the box or otherwise). Line an 8x8 baking dish with foil or parchment and spray with a non-stick cooking spray.  Line the baking dish with the (unwrapped) Reese's cups, 4 rows of 4.  Pour the batter over the Reese's cups. GENTLY spread out evenly, trying not to move the Reese's cups too much.  Bake according to brownie recipe (on box or otherwise).
Once brownies are done...
Put the hot fudge sauce and 1/4 cup peanut butter in a small microwave safe bowl. Heat in the microwave for 30 seconds, or until sauce and peanut butter are melted enough to easily mix. Stir until combined. Pour evenly over the brownies.  Heat the remaining (1/4 cup) peanut butter until melted. Drizzle over the hot fudge-peanut butter layer. Swirl with a knife. Serve warm or let cool completely before cutting into squares and serving. Store in an airtight container for up to a week.
