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)

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.

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!
