Notes

Typically a preprepared brownie mix requires 2 eggs, 1/4 cup of water and 1/2 cup of oil.  So when you are preparing to make this recipe be sure to include those ingredients to your list.
If you prefer, you can use a double boiler over medium heat on the stove to melt the chocolate chips.
You can use creamy or chunky peanut butter in this recipe - chunky adds more crunch.
