To make this Peanut Butter Crumble Brownie Recipe, start with your favorite brownie mix, I just usually buy what is on sale, and prepare per the package directions. This recipe calls for a box that can fill a 9×13 pan.

Then make the crumble. I make this in a 4 cup Pyrex measuring cup ( this pic was a 2 cup and too small)

Then add the chocolate chips. If you are feeling festive add colored M& Ms instead of the chips. Hey why not add both, it is a dessert anyway.

 I have made this more than once and I like it both ways with M&M’s and without. The family liked it both ways but the kids always like something a little more with candy inside!!.

So whether you are making a dessert for the family or a fall outing don’t stress over it, start it off with a brownie mix and adding peanut butter and oatmeal never hurt anyone either.
