This recipe is such a kiwi favourite – it has been years since I have made them but after finding a bag of roasted peanuts in the pantry I knew this would be my easy quick recipe this week!
There are a few variations around the place, but most follow the same basic recipe. I used the Edmonds recipe this time as I knew this would be fail safe! Edmonds is a company with many many cook books found in most NZ homes, it has good easy traditional recipes as well as a line of baking products as well.
When you search Peanut Brownie on the internet you find actual Chocolate Brownie Slice, this is much different than that! This is a simple crunchy biscuit with lots of lovely large peanut pieces in – a perfect sweet and savoury combination.

I hope you enjoy this simple but delicious recipe – perfect for the peanut lovers in your life!
