Peanut Butter Cup Blondies








These little treats are amazing! They are a nice alternative to the traditional chocolate brownie too!

Makes 20 ( 4 points + )

  • 1-¼ c. flour
  • 1 c. sugar
  • ½ tsp. baking powder
  • ¼ tsp. salt
  • ⅓ c. creamy peanut butter
  • ¼ c. butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 2 T. 2% milk
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 2 eggs
  • ¼ c. mini chocolate chips
  • 4 ( 0.75 oz) peanut butter cups, coarsely chopped


Preheat oven to 350 and spray a 9" square baking pan with nonstick spray.

Stir together flour with next three ingredients. In a separate bowl, whisk together peanut butter with next four ingredients (through eggs). Add flour mixture to peanut butter mixture and stir until combined. Stir in chocolate chips. Spread in baking dish and top with chopped peanut butter cups. Bake for 19 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with moist crumbs clinging. Cool in pan on a wire rack.

  3. I made these today with fat free milk instead of 2%. Also, I used the new reese's mini cups, and placed 20 exactly, so each piece of the bars get one cup.
