Mix Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, combine the butter, sugar, and brown sugar until creamy and well mixed.
Add Wet Ingredients: Beat in the eggs and milk until fully incorporated into the mixture.
Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until a smooth batter forms.
Divide Batter: Divide the batter evenly into two separate portions.
Peanut Butter Batter: To one portion of the batter, add the creamy peanut butter and peanut butter chips. Mix until the peanut butter is fully incorporated and the batter is smooth.
Chocolate Batter: To the other portion of the batter, add the cocoa powder and chocolate chips. Mix well until the cocoa is fully integrated and the batter is smooth.
Layering: Spoon the chocolate batter into the greased pan in eight evenly spaced mounds, creating a checkerboard pattern.
Peanut Butter Swirl: Spoon the peanut butter batter in between the chocolate batter mounds.
Swirl: Using a knife, gently cut through the batter in a swirling motion to create a marbled effect.
Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
Cool: Once baked, remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool in the pan on a wire rack.
Serve: Once cooled, cut into squares and serve. Enjoy the irresistible combination of chocolate and peanut butter in every bite!
