Rich, fudgy brownies built on melted semi-sweet chocolate and real butter — these are the kind of squares that disappear fast at any gathering, and nobody will guess they're made without traditional wheat flour. A simple swap to gluten free flour keeps the batter thick and glossy, folding in just enough cocoa powder to deepen that chocolate hit without drying things out. The real showstopper is the peanut butter swirl: creamy peanut butter, a touch of powdered sugar, and melted butter come together into a silky ribbon that gets dragged through the batter in long S-curves, creating that gorgeous marbled top before the pan even hits the oven. Baking at 350°F for just under 30 minutes leaves the edges set and the center with those coveted moist crumbs — the sweet spot between cakey and fudgy. Once cooled and cut into 16 squares, each piece delivers a little pocket of peanut butter in every bite. These are genuinely impressive enough for a dinner party but easy enough for a Tuesday night craving.
