Cinnamon Peanut Butter Brownies

Submitted by Rachel Lynn

"I got this recipe out of my mother's Spririt of Christmas Cookbook. I always use the smooth peanut butter since we don't keep the crunchy on hand and it comes out just fine."

THESE are AWESOOOOOOME!!!! Moist, chewy, cinnamony, and the edges aren't dry like a lot of brownie recipes! :) A sure keeper!!! I used Peter Pan Creamy, and next time I might add some chocolate chips, nuts and or raisins! But REALLY good just as is!!! :) I baked them for the full 25 minutes and that worked out perfectly! :) Thanks Rach! :) (Made for the Fall Pick-a-Chef!) :)

These were wonderful. I doubled the recipe & used a 13X9 pan. I think the baking time was about 32-34 min? I used smooth peanut butter & my husband said they were great. thank you!

Just made these like an hour ago. My mother wanted something sweet and we have few things to make something, so I got on the net and found this little recipe. Ate them completely warm. And they were great! My family loves them! Added an extra tsp of cinnamon and did 1/2 cup of peanut butter instead of a 1/4. Family loves peanut butter. ^^ They are just perfect! Something new and something to make again and again!

Really neat flavour combo! Nice & moist, just like brownies should be! Very quick & easy to prepare.
