Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. Cream 1 cup of softened butter with 2 cups of brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 2 large eggs and 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract until fully combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and ½ teaspoon of salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
  5. Gently fold in 1 cup of chopped peanut butter cups into the dough.
  6. Transfer the dough into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  7. Warm ½ cup of hot fudge sauce until drizzly and pour it over the dough. Use a toothpick or knife to create swirls.
  8. Bake for approximately 20 minutes, until edges are golden brown and center remains soft.
  9. Cool in the pan on a wire rack for about 30 minutes.
  10. Lift the cooled bars out and slice into squares to serve.

Notes

Ensure the dough is thick and slightly sticky for that gooey center. Use quality ingredients for the best flavor. Don't overbake to maintain softness in the center.
