Chocolate Chocolate and More!

Welcome to my baking adventures.

Peanut Butter Lunch Lady Brownies

Remember those delicious brownies from school lunch? I’ve made them in another form: Peanut Butter Lunch Lady Brownies.

Peanut Butter Lunch Lady Brownies

Hello there, fellow chocolate lovers! I’m Mandy from Mandy’s Recipe Box and do I have a nostalgic treat for you.

I made this recipe with Joan and her chocolate loving readers in mind. With a site that has “chocolate” in the name, I knew I wanted to make a chocolate dessert to share with you all. Do you guys remember when school lunch was delicious and they served those delectable brownies you couldn’t get enough of? Well, I made Peanut Butter Lunch Lady Brownies in remembrance of a great time when school lunch was great. How can anyone resist peanut butter and chocolate together?

I also remember loving those Lunch Lady Peanut Butter Bars. Do you remember those? Oh so good and I always got an extra if they had leftovers. These Peanut Butter Lunch Lady Brownies are made from scratch. There is no boxed brownie mix involved. I do love brownies from a mix, but these are made with pure love. It’s definitely worth the extra effort and you probably have the ingredients in your pantry. And then there are the Reese’s Minis. Ok. Those things are completely dangerous. I only have them around when baking, otherwise I would eat the whole bag. I do save a few for myself, you better believe it. I hope you like these brownies. Be sure to take an extra bite for Joan!
