    Is there anything better than chocolate and peanut butter? I'd forgive you if you said no, but the answer is actually yes! When you combine the white chocolate and peanut butter of a Reese's cup with the super fudgy chocolate brownie batter used in this recipe, you get the ultimate chocolate peanut butter treat, and like so many of my delicious baked treats, it's gluten-free.

    Ingredients

    As an Amazon associate, I earn a small commission on products purchased through my links. However, I only link to ingredients I love AND use.

    These brownies only use a few basic baking ingredients, which are either in your kitchen right now or at your local grocery store.

    All the ingredients you need to make this recipe are listed here, but you can find their exact amounts in the recipe card at the end of the post.

    • Gluten-Free Flour: Bob's Red Mill 1:1 gluten-free baking flour is my preferred flour for creating all my gluten-free baked goods.
    • Semi-Sweet Chocolate and Costabile Olive Oil: The oil and semi-sweet chocolate chips are heated until the chocolate melts, adding extra richness and chocolate flavor to the brownie batter. I prefer Costable Olive Oil because it's incredibly high quality, family-owned, and straight from Italy. (Use Code: 15GoldenGK for 15% off)
    • Crushed Milk Chocolate Bar: Crushed milk chocolate bar pieces add more chocolate flavor and a bit of a chocolate chunk-like texture to the brownies.
    • Dutch Cocoa Powder: OliveNation Dutch-processed cocoa powder is my go-to for any chocolate recipe. It adds rich, deep chocolate flavor to these super-fudgy brownies. (Use Code: NK15 for 15% off)
    • Eggs: Eggs add moisture and richness to the batter while helping it rise and maintain its texture.
    • Brown and White Sugar: This combination adds sweetness to the deep chocolate flavor of the brownies.
    • Salt and Vanilla: Salt and Singing Dog vanilla extract are both classic baking ingredients. Salt helps the batter rise, while the vanilla adds rich flavor to the batter.
    • Thin White Chocolate Reese's Cups: Thin White Chocolate Reese's cups make the center of these delicious brownies, adding white chocolate and peanut butter flavor to every bite.

    How to Make White Chocolate Reese's Brownies

    This recipe is very simple, taking only a few minutes and a few simple steps from start to finish. It might seem fancy, but even beginners can make it with no issues!

    The recipe highlights are listed here, but the recipe card at the end of the post has the exact instructions.

    1. Melt the Semi-Sweet Chocolate: Combine the chocolate and olive oil and heat in a saucepan until creamy.
    2. Combine the Dry Ingredients: Whisk the dry batter ingredients together in a bowl.
    3. Combine the Wet Ingredients: Beat the eggs, sugars, and vanilla. Then, add the chocolate and oil mixture and mix.
    4. Make the Brownie Batter: Mix the dry ingredients into the wet until just combined. Then, add the chopped chocolate bar pieces and fold to distribute them.
    5. Layer: Pour half the batter into a prepared baking dish, add the white chocolate Reese's in a single layer, and top with the remaining batter.

    Equipment

    • Measuring cups and spoons
    • Mixing bowls
    • Saucepan
    • 8x8 baking dish
    • Wire cooling rack
    • Parchment Paper

    Storage

    Store these brownies in a cool, dry place in an air-tight container for up to three days.

    For longer storage, wrap the brownies in plastic wrap, then freeze them in an air-tight, freezer-safe container or heavy-duty freezer bag for up to a month. To defrost them, simply leave them on the counter until they reach room temperature.

    Tips for Making the Best White Chocolate Reese's Brownies

    • Bring your eggs to room temperature before mixing them into the batter. This helps them incorporate more easily.
    • Let the chocolate olive oil mixture cool before adding it to the batter ingredients to keep the eggs from scrambling.
    • These are super moist brownies, so they're perfectly done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
    • Let your brownies fully cool before slicing them so they hold their shape.

    FAQ

    What is gluten-free flour?

    Gluten-free flour is a name for flour varieties made without wheat, the traditional grain used in flour. Gluten-free flour can be made from almonds, rice, buckwheat, tapioca, and other sources.

    Why do you use Bob's 1:1 gluten-free flour?

    The blend of gluten-free flours and the addition of xantham gum in this flour makes it ideal for any baked good and delivers a texture almost identical to traditional flour.

    Why were my brownies dry?

    Dry brownies can be the result of using too much flour. To measure your flour correctly, loosely spoon it into your measuring cup, then level it off with a knife. This prevents the flour from being compacted and results in accurate measurement.

    • Press your Reese's Cups down just a bit when you add them to the pan to be sure the batter completely covers their tops.
