Ingredients
For the brownie layer:

- ½ cup of maple syrup
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
For the peanut butter fudge layer
- 1 cups Sugar Free Peanut Butter Cup Syrup
- ¼ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal.
- In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the melted butter, maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- In another bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
- Bake the brownies in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Allow the brownies to cool slightly while you prepare the peanut butter fudge layer.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the Sugar Free Peanut Butter Cup Syrup, and butter over low heat, stirring until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and stir in the powdered and vanilla extract until fully combined and smooth.
- Pour the peanut butter fudge mixture over the slightly cooled brownie layer, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until the peanut butter fudge layer is firm.
- Once chilled, lift the brownies out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into squares and enjoy your peanut butter fudge brownies!
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
