Ingredients

Servings:
20
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup brownie mix (store-bought or homemade)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup water (for brownie mix preparation)

  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 cup caramel sauce (for drizzling)
  • 1 cup crushed peanuts (for garnish)

Instructions

7 steps

  1. Prepare Brownies

    Preheat the oven and mix the brownie ingredients as per the package instructions, then bake.

    Use a toothpick to check for doneness.
  2. Cool Brownies

    Allow the baked brownies to cool completely before cutting them into cubes.

  3. Layer Ingredients

    In a trifle dish, start by layering brownie cubes at the bottom.

    Press them slightly to ensure stability.
  4. Add Peanut Butter

    Spread a layer of peanut butter over the brownie cubes.

    Heat the peanut butter slightly to make spreading easier.
  5. Add Whipped Cream

    Top with a layer of whipped cream, smoothing it out evenly.

    You can pipe the whipped cream for a decorative look.
  6. Repeat Layers

    Continue layering brownies, peanut butter, and whipped cream until the dish is full.

    Finish with whipped cream on top.
  7. Garnish

    Drizzle caramel sauce and sprinkle crushed peanuts on top.

    Serve immediately or chill for a few hours before serving.
