Peanut Butter Snickers Brownies topped with Chocolate and Peanut Butter Swirled Frosting

(will make approx 11 brownie cups)

For brownies:

1 cup sugar

2 eggs

2 t. vanilla

1/2 cup melted butter

1/2 cup cocoa powder

2/3 cup flour

1/4 t. baking powder

1/4 t. salt

Peanut Butter Frosting:

1/2 stick butter, room temp.

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

2 1/2 - 3 cups sifted powdered sugar

3 T. milk

Chocolate Frosting:

1/2 stick butter, room temp.

1/4 cup cocoa powder

2 1/2 - 3 cups sifted powdered sugar

1/2 t. vanilla

1/4 cup milk

Preheat to 350

Spray muffin pan with cooking spray, set aside.

In a large bowl stir together eggs, vanilla and sugar.

Stir in melted butter.

Sift in cocoa powder, flour, baking powder and salt.

In each muffin tin add 1/4 cup brownie batter.

Press unwrapped Snickers square into each cup

Cover the tops of the brownie with remaining batter, so that the snickers is completely covered.
Bake for 15-17 minutes until edges are set and center is not jiggly.

Remove pan from oven and set on a wire cooling rack.

Let the brownie cups cool for at least 30 minutes IN the pan.

When the brownies are cool, use a butter knife to release the edges and flip pan over onto cooling rack.

Carefully flip the brownies over and let them cool completely before frosting.

Mix frosting, while brownies are cooling. Fill half the bag with PB frosting, and half w/ chocolate.
