Ultimate Triple Peanut Blondies satisfy every peanut butter craving! Chewy, rich and buttery peanut butter bars with crunchy peanuts and peanut butter chips.
Move over Peanut Butter Fudge, a new PB king is in town with creamy and chewy peanut butter goodness, but when you need maximum peanut butter flavor, nothing beats this new ultimate Brownie Recipe!
ULTIMATE TRIPLE PEANUT BLONDIES
This recipe is one of the best variations to vanilla brownies, also known as blondies, especially if you are a peanut fanatic! Even if you aren’t obsessed with all things peanut butter, you will love these Triple Peanut Blondies. They are the perfect blend of salty and sweet, with creamy peanut butter adding so much flavor.
These delicious Triple Peanut Blondies are a great for potlucks, bake sales, or as an easy summer dessert. They are ready in less than an hour and use ingredients right from your pantry. You can easily double the batch to feed a crowd and bake in a 9×13 baking dish an extra 10 minutes or so. And they can be frozen, so you can have them whenever a peanut butter craving hits!
It’s important to use regular creamy peanut butter when you are baking. Look for a brand without added sugar or salt, but make sure it’s the kind that doesn’t separate. Oils will separate in natural peanut butter during the cooking process and your Triple Peanut Blondies will not cook right. The good news is regular ol’ peanut butter is about half the price of the natural stuff!

What Makes these Blondies Ultimate?
The salted peanuts make this Triple Peanut Blondies recipe extra delicious. Not only are they are pleasant crunch but they give balance to the sweet peanut butter chips and sugar. Just like a bit of sea salt completely changes caramel (like in Salted Caramels), that’s exactly what using salted peanuts does to these rich, sugary brownies!
Make an out of this world peanut butter dessert by frosting your Triple Peanut Blondies with Peanut Butter Frosting and sprinkling more chopped peanuts on top! Or serve them topped with a scoop of Vanilla Ice Cream or Dark Chocolate Ice Cream. Add a bit more salty sweet flavor with a drizzle of Salted Caramel Sauce.
