Chocolatey Peanut Butter Brownies

This was a little thank you to our maintenance crew for improving our screwy stove! While one of the guys was fixing our stove I asked what I could bake for him..."Anything with peanut butter!" LOL. So I found a recipe for peanut butter brownies on Allrecipes and modified it just a bit! Enjoy!
