<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #663300; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20.75px;">(I used Lorna Doone)<br />1 stick butter, melted, cooled a bit<br />Generous pinch of sea salt<br /><br />peanut butter & fluff topping:<br />1 cup smooth pb<br />1 cup fluff<br /><br />brownies:<br />1 box of Brownie mix<br /><br /><br /><br />Mix the melted butter with the crushed cookies, <br />adding a nice generous pinch of salt. Place mixture in well greased or <br />parchment lined 9 x 13 brownie pan. <br />Make sure to pat down and get into all the corners. <br />Bake at 350 for 10 minutes or until set. Set aside.<br /><br />For the brownie mixture:<br />Mix according to box directions. Set aside.<br /><br />For the pb & fluff swirl:<br />Put the pb and fluff in a bowl, heat up in microwave for about 15-20 seconds, <br />to get nice and soft. Mix a bit, don’t mix all the way as we <br />want to see the different colored swirls.<br /><br />When ready to bake, pour in the brownie mixture on top of cookie crust.<br /><br />Then take the pb & fluff mixture and using a spoon, dollop three lines of <br />mixture down the longest part of pan. Make sure to leave enough space <br />in between lines to see brownie mixture. Using a chop stick, gently make <br />swirls going the opposite direction of the three lines. Or however you wish<br /> to do this. Try not to make too many swirls as we want to see the various <br />colors of the mix after they’ve baked.<br />Bake brownies at 325 for 45-55 minutes . <br />Let cool in pan for at least an hour. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #663300; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20.75px;">For easier cutting place in fridge for 30 minutes.<br />Using a wet sharp knife, slice up into small squares.<br />You should get about 25-30 brownies, depending on how you slice them.</span></span></div>
