HOUSTON – Tanji Patton of “Goodtaste with Tanji” shares 3 easy recipes to try this Easter holiday, from Peanut Butter Cup Brownies to Confetti Popcorn and a Prosecco Sherbet drink.
All of the recipes are easy to make and easy to enjoy with the family at home.
Peanut Butter Cup Brownies
Ingredients:
- Non-stick spray for greasing
- One 17 to 20-ounce box brownie mix plus additional ingredients called for on box
- 12 full-size Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups unwrapped
- Easter chocolate candies or flaky sea salt for topping
Preheat the oven according to the package instructions and grease an 8-by-8-inch metal pan.
In a large bowl, prepare the brownie mix according to package instructions. Using a spatula, spread half of the brownie batter in the bottom of the pan. Arrange 9 of the peanut butter cups in the pan, then cut the remaining 3 in half and fit in along the edges. Scrape the remaining brownie batter into the pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
Bake the brownies until crisp around the edges and the middle is set, 35 to 45 minutes depending on the mix. Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let cool completely.
