Servings: persons

8 ounces, weight Bittersweet Or Unsweetened Chocolate, Roughly Chopped
1 stick Unsalted Butter, At Room Temperature
1 cup Sugar
3/4 cups Dark Brown Sugar
1-1/4 cup All-purpose Flour
1/3 cups Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda
1/2 teaspoons Kosher Salt
4 whole Eggs At Room Temperature
FOR THE GLAZE:
1-1/2 cup Powdered Sugar
4 Tablespoons Smooth Peanut Butter
1 teaspoon Real Vanilla Extract
4 Tablespoons Whole Milk
Chocolate Sprinkles, Chopped Peanuts Or Toasted Coconut, For Garnish (optional)

1
For the brownies: Preheat your oven to 325u00b0F. Prep your pan with olive oil spray (wipe out any excess) or lightly grease with coconut oil.
2
In a sauce pan, place the broken pieces of chocolate and butter. Melt over low heat, stirring often. Once melted, remove off of the heat and add the sugars, stir and set aside.
3
Next sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt into a large bowl and set aside.
4
To the slightly warm chocolate/sugar mixture, add in 1 egg at a time, stirring after each additional egg. Then add spoonfuls of the flour/cocoa mixture and stir with a spatula until smooth.
5
Pour batter into prepared doughnut pan and bake in preheated oven for 12-14 minutes or until a tester comes out with a trace amount of batter. It shouldn't be runny.
6
Let cool for 10 minutes in the pan and then remove to a wire rack and prepare the glaze.
7
For the glaze: In a medium-sized bowl, lightly whisk the powdered sugar to break up any clumps. Add in the peanut butter, vanilla and whole milk. Stir until silky smooth.
8
Dunk the cooled doughnuts into the glaze and turn glaze-side-up back onto the wire rack. Top with chocolate sprinkles, chopped peanuts or toasted coconut if desired.
9
Enjoy!

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
