Peanut Butter Brownies

Preheat oven to 350.

Grease and flour a 9" square baking pan. You can use an 8", but the bake time will be longer and your brownies will be taller.

Sift together ½ c. all-purpose flour with 6 Tbsp. unsweetened cocoa powder, ¼ tsp. baking powder, and a pinch of salt into a medium bowl.

In a separate bowl, stir together ½ c. (1 stick) melted butter, ½ c. granulated sugar, ½ c. packed brown sugar. Add 1 tsp. vanilla, then beat in 2 eggs, one at a time, until well-blended.

Stir flour/cocoa mixture into butter/sugar mixture until well-blended. Don't spazz - the batter is supposed to be super thick. Spread into baking pan.

In a third bowl, beat together 1 8 oz. pkg. softened cream cheese, ½ c. crunchy peanut butter, ¼ c. granulated sugar, 1 large egg, 1 Tbsp whole milk, and ¼ tsp. vanilla until smooth and creamy. Pour on top of brownie batter in baking pan.

Bake for 40 minutes. Cool completely before cutting into bars.
