This combination is great in so many forms – and I plan to present you with more of them.  This is a simple one to start off with.  Never turn down your nose at a mix – they come in very handy and frequently turn into something special! (They’re also great to have around for those times late at night when your daughter says “I need a cake for my friend’s birthday tomorrow!)

1 (19.8 ounce) package brownie mix

2 cups powdered sugar

1 cup peanut butter

¾ cup margarine, divided

1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Prepare brownies according to package directions.  Bake and cool.  Beat together powdered sugar, peanut butter and ½ cup margarine.  Spread over cooled brownies.  Cover and chill for at least one hour.  Melt together remaining ¼ cup margarine and chocolate chips.  Stir until smooth.  Spread over brownies.  Cool and cut into squares.  Store in the refrigerator.
