I made these brownies for a co-worker's birthday and everyone raved about them. People have even asked for the recipe so they must be good.

This was delicious! I was glad I read the ratings first,so I knew to spray the cupcake liners with cooking spray. I made a few just swirling the peanut butter mixture and batter together and they were the best. The others didn't have as much of the peanut butter mix, but still delicious!!

Delicious, huge hit & easy, but looks impressive! A friend made them for a girl's night, she used piped icing instead of cool whip. I made them the next weekend - plain and with cool whip - all 3 ways were yummy! They did stick a bit so I'll try the foil muffin cups next time like the other poster suggested!

I made this without the peanut butter and it was fantastic. I think I will try with the peanut butter next time to see how it comes out.

Very popular but I am lazy. I just poured the brownie into a 9x13 pan and dotted the brownie batter with the cream cheese / peanut butter mixuture, swirled the two together and baked it.

I've just made these for the 2nd time. Like Lorif417, I left off the coolwhip and cherries. I took them to a family gathering and got raves. Especially since I'm not "known" for my cooking. Thanks, I'll use this recipe lots.

A+++++ on this awesome receipe. Everyone loved it and wants me to make them again real soon. The only change I made to this receipe was I left off the cool whip and cherries, my family are not big on cherries.

These were awesome! Before I put the cool whip on, I warmed them in the microwave to warm them a bit.
