- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 12-inch pizza pan or a round baking pan. You can also line it with parchment paper for easier removal.
- Follow the instructions on your brownie mix box to prepare the batter. Typically, you will combine the brownie mix with eggs, oil, and water in a bowl. Mix until just combined; be careful not to overmix.1 box (15.7 oz) brownie mix
- Pour the brownie batter onto the prepared pizza pan and spread it evenly to form a thin, circular crust. Aim for a consistent thickness across the pan.
- Bake the brownie crust in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached. It should be set but not overly firm.
- Remove the brownie crust from the oven and let it cool completely on the pizza pan. This is crucial before adding the toppings to prevent them from melting too quickly.
- While the brownie crust cools, prepare the creamy peanut butter frosting. In a medium bowl, beat together the creamy peanut butter and softened butter until smooth and creamy.1 cup creamy peanut butter, 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- Gradually add the powdered sugar to the peanut butter mixture, alternating with the milk, and beat until the frosting is smooth, fluffy, and spreadable. You may need to adjust the amount of milk slightly to achieve the desired consistency.1/2 cup powdered sugar, 1/4 cup milk
- Once the brownie crust is completely cool, generously spread the peanut butter frosting evenly over the entire surface, just like you would spread sauce on a pizza.
- Sprinkle the chopped peanut butter cups and semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly over the peanut butter frosting. Press them down gently so they adhere.1 cup chopped peanut butter cups, 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- For an extra touch of elegance and flavor, sprinkle a bit of flaky sea salt over the top.a sprinkle flaky sea salt
- For cleaner slices and a firmer texture, you can chill the Peanut Butter Cup Brownie Pizza in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the toppings and frosting to set.
- Slice the Peanut Butter Cup Brownie Pizza into wedges using a sharp knife and serve immediately.
