It’s Secret Recipe Club time 
If you are still not part of this amazing club I highly suggest you join. It’s so much fun! This month I was assigned the blog Penny-Pinching Provisions and immediately fell in love with two recipes. I must have been craving chocolate since both recipes were for brownies. Then it hit me. Why not combine the two recipes? So, with recipes in hand I set off to combine Nutella Spiked Brownies and Brownies with Peanut Butter Frosting….yum!
The brownies turned out ooey and gooey and had just the right amount of Nutella flavor. The frosting reminded me a lot of peanut butter fudge. In fact it felt like I was eating soft peanut butter fudge over top gooey brownies…I was in heaven! (My frosting to brownie ratio was a bit off because I halved the brownie recipe but not the frosting)
Peanut Butter Frosted Nutella Brownies:
Brownies:
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate
1/2 cup butter
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
1/2 cup Nutella
2 tsp vanilla
1 c flour
Pre-heat oven 325 degrees
Melt chocolate and set aside to cool.
Thoroughly cream butter and sugar.
Add eggs and Nutella and beat well.
Blend in melted chocolate, vanilla, and flour.
Pour into greased 13×9 pan and bake for approximately 35 minutes (until toothpick comes out clean)
Peanut Butter Frosting:
1/4 c butter – softened
2/3 c peanut butter
2 c powdered sugar
1/3 c milk
Combine ingredients and beat until fluffy. (Resist eating all the frosting)
Top cooled brownies with frosting.

I love that you combined two recipes! What an awesome idea. My husband is a crazy nutella fan…..he’d go bonkers for these
Oh…these Brownies are adorable! Lovely to be in SRC with you.
Two great flavors in one perfect brownie!
I’d love for you to check out my SRC recipe this month: Holy Guacamole.

Awesome combination. Those look delicious!
This is genius! Why choose between Nutella and pb when you can have ‘em both?
Great combination! There is no reason one cannot have “it all”! Nice SRC entry.
Oh my goodness, please mail me one immediately! These look too good!
Those sound super delicious. Great combo of flavors and they look superb.
Oh my worrrrd…those brownies must be ammmmazing!
I think they look fabulous stacked with all the frosting! These sound really deadly. I would need to make a small batch of these because I could eat the whole pan!
Girl you picked a great treat for this event! Just saw the salad from your blog-came out beautiful!
So fun to be in the Secret Recipe Club with you. This looks amazing
These Brownies are awesome… looks so soft and delicious….
Oh Wow! What’s not to love there?!
Oh my goodness!!!!!! these look absolutely crazy amazing. Peanut butter plus nutella plus brownie… so delicious!
Oh my how divine!!! Love these!
How fun is this secret recipe club! And how amazing these brownies look! wow, nutella in a brownie, I’m so sold on that!
Combining both of those recipes was a genius idea! The end result is definitely one tasty looking brownie =)
I think your peanut butter to brownie ratio was just right, I would have had a hard time not eating the frosting straight out of the bowl myself!
You have no idea how loudly my stomach is growling right now. No. Idea.
I’m so glad you liked them! That frosting is so good=)
Wowza, I am pretty sure I would have chosen this too, if that had been my SRC blog assignment.
Great idea to combine the 2 fabulous flavors!
These are so NOT on my diet. Oh, well. They look delicious!!!!
What a fun twist on brownies! Super selection for this month’s SRC!
What a great idea to combine the recipes! They look great!
How fun to combine both of these! Love the flavors, bet they were delicious.
Ooh nice. So this entire secret club escaped me. lol Had no clue what was happening:).
These brownies look SO SO SO good! I definitely need to try them … yum!!
I can’t think of a better combination of flavors for a brownie. Wow!
Nothing wrong with that frosting to brownie ratio. That is perfect in my book. These look great!
It’s my 1st month in the SRC and I love what you made!
I make Nutella Brownies too with cream cheese frosting and I would love to try w/ PB frosting.
You rocked this recipe!
These look amazing! I love all that frosting piled on top–yum!
Whoa. The frosting is so thick it almost looks like a two-layer brownie! lol. These sound delicious–great job!
What a genius combination you created there! I love nutella and pb, I bet together in one brownie they are magnificent. Stopping by from SRC, loving your blog… I am your newest follower subscribed by email

Oh my goodness! These sound amazing, the perfect combo of heavenly flavors:)
oh my, like my two favorite things all in one
fabulous!
Oh these look incredible! I am loving that frosting!
This looks fabulous. Nice work on the Secret Recipe Club. Isn’t it fun. I love finding new blogs and reading through them.
Oh my goodness! The title alone caught my attention. Wow! Love these guys, pb and nutella, you can’t go wrong. Excellent SRC post!!
I had to read the title twice and then study the pictures! These look heavenly – I love that thick peanut butter layer. Very intriguing and tempting!
Nutella and I have an early morning ritual of spreading it thickly on toast, but wow, brownies sounds even more decadent.
I’m one of those people who’s very generous with the icing/frosting, too.
Wow, that’s a killer combination!
Such scrumptious brownies, they sound wonderful with nutella and pb frosting! Junior has been into both nutella & pb lately so she would definitely love this.
What a GREAT way to use nutella!! These look absolutely delicious!!
These sound so good – I love that there’s two spreads in one. I’d much rather have that than toast for breakfast anyday
Goodness me, Nutella and brownies, somebody in my house would just drool over this, thanks for the recipe, it’s been a great adventure going through all the blogs because of SRC, meeting new bloggers and new recipes, you have a lovely space here
oh heavens. the frosting is thicker than the brownie, and frankly, that’s the way it should always be.
YUM! Pass one (or two or three) my way, please!
Brandy, These brownies look so amazing! YUMMO!
My husband will kill a man for these. Nutella and PB are his two favorite things!
PMG Brandy, totally drool worthy! What an amazing combination, completely brilliant!
haha! PMG was supposed to be OMG
I have some nutella I need to use up so this sounds right up my alley.
Thanks for sharing the recipe.
