Peanut Butter Mousse Brownies By Kelly Miller • March14,2014 • Updated January 18, 2022 • 4 Comments 5.2K Jump to Recipe Fudgy Peanut Butter Mousse Brownies made with chunks of peanut butter cups, topped with a decadent peanut butter mousse, and drizzled with more chocolate – guaranteed to satisfy your sweet tooth! OOOoooo I LOVE a good challenge, don’t you? Not so much with sports, but growing up I REALLY loved playing board games and card games. Monopoly, Canasta, Apples to Apples, we played them all – of course back when the kiddos weren’t yet in the picture! I have to admit, I was so annoying to play with! I would round everyone up to play, get through about 3/4 of the game, and then stop playing because I didn’t feel like it. If I’m being honest, it was probably because I suspected I wasn’t going to win! Haha, my sister would get so mad at me. Sorry Renee. 🙂 Now a baking challenge? That’s something I can get excited about!   I actually served these to the guests at Silas’ 5th birthday party, and they all RAVED about these brownies – you have to try them! I have to admit though, a tall glass of ice cold milk is required!
