2. Remove from heat and stir in eggs and vanilla extract. Set aside.

1. In a medium bowl, mix flour, cocoa powder, salt and baking powder. Stir the butter, sugar and eggs into the dry ingredients until just mixed. A few lumps are okay.

Peanut Butter Cookie Dough

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together vegetable oil and sugar. Then add the egg, vanilla extract, and peanut butter and mix well.

3. Drop tablespoon sized scoops of peanut butter cookie dough onto the brownie batter.
4. Bake for 27-30 minutes, then cool completely before cutting into bars.
