Ok friends, I’m going to keep this short and sweet for you today because ;
1 – Today we are making flourless marble swirled peanut butter choc fudge blondie bites!! And who wants to listen to (or read) my ramblings when they are such delicious things to be enjoyed!
2 – I seem to have gone and broken my arm. Well, it’s not actually broken but somehow I managed to give myself tennis elbow which I’ve recently learned has nothing to do with playing tennis at all!
It’s extremely uncomfortable, extremely annoying and just not much fun! I’m suppose to be resting and avoiding any activity that “triggers it” which is pretty much everything.
Squeezing a sponge to do washing up (← not real mad about that one) , typing = ouch, holding my camera (or my phone) = extremely difficult , even something as simple stirring a yoghurt bowl to eat for breakfast is completely exhausting and makes me feel like I need to take a nap. Lucky for me I can hold a brownie (or blondie) with my left hand and eat it pain free #silverlining
3 – Refer to point 1 (also, those swirls!!!!!) – Today we are making flourless marble swirled peanut butter choc fudge blondie bites!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And yes, the excessive amount of exclamation points are 100% necessary, plus maybe a few more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pull up a chair, let me give you allll of the delicious deets . . .
From bottom to top we have a layer or super fudgy rich chocolate brownie that’s stuffed with roughly chopped peanut butter cups, followed by a layer of cinnamon spiced peanut butter blondie, also stuffed with peanut butter cups, finished with a final swirl of brownie batter, an extra drizzle of peanut butter and a couple more peanut butter cups for good measure.
Oh and a cheeky pinch of flaky sea salt because, yes!
Subtly sweet, deliciously indulgent, crispy on the edges, S U P E R fudgy in the middle, just as a good brownie (or blondie) should be, packed with punchy peanut butter flavour and alllll of the chocolate!
Layer, upon layer, upon layer of deliciousness and you need them in your life because yum!
No words needed!
Made with no refined flours or sugars using just 6 simple ingredients that I bet you have on hand already and can be ready to devour in less than 40 minutes!
