Do you know what time it is? It’s Peanut Butter Bash time! Some of my favorite bloggers and I take peanut butter and a special ingredient and make something amazing! This month’s ingredient was caramel. I decided to whip up some brownie cups, fill the inside with peanut butter cheesecake, and then drizzle caramel sauce on top. They are divine!
For this recipe, I took a short cut with brownie box mix. It’s fast and easy, and it tastes pretty darn good. Don’t ever feel guilty for taking shortcuts — sometimes it’s necessary.
Then, I made up some peanut butter cheesecake and baked it in the middle of each brownie cup. When you bite into one, it tastes heavenly.
Peanut Butter Cheesecake Brownie Cups
Is there anything better than chocolate and peanut butter? These brownie cups are filled with peanut butter cheesecake and then drizzled in caramel sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 pkg of brownie mix - made according to directions
- 1/4 cup peanut butter
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 egg
- caramel sauce
Instructions
- Spray a muffin tin with nonstick spray.
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Make the brownies according to the directions.
- Combine cream cheese, egg, peanut butter, and sugar. Mix until smooth.
- Fill each muffin tin one-third with brownie mix.
- Then, add a spoonful of the peanut butter mixture.
- Next, top off the next one-third of the brownie mix - so they are filled only 2/3 full.
- Bake for 16-18 minutes until tops are done.
- Allow to cool. Serve drizzled in caramel.

I am not a fan of peanut butter however these look amazing and I may give them a go.
That is just mouth-watering! You are so good at this. The twist that you made with the peanut butter cheesecake is definitely going to be a hit. I have to make this one of these days – i just know this tastes super yum!
You had me at cheesecake. This looks super yummy! I have to try this.
I’m game for anything peanut butter! This looks delightful. I’d love to add a scoop of Vanilla ice cream on top.
What?! Cheesecake in the center of BROWNIE with CARAMEL on top – YES please! I love that you and other bloggers band together and sort of challenge and inspire each other to create new yummy treats for all of us! Thank you!
I personally don’t like peanut butter or cheesecake, but my kids do! I will have to try this out for them! Thanks for sharing!
The drizzle on these looks really tasty. I would love to make this for the kids.
