Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups (187.5 g) all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- ⅓ cup (39 g) Dutch-processed cocoa powder
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 large eggs, room temperature

- ¾ cup (1 ½ sticks / 170 g) unsalted butter
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 recipe peanut butter mousse, prepared

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 9×13-inch baking dish with parchment paper up the sides.
- In a large bowl whisk flour, cornstarch, cocoa, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- To the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the eggs, sugar, butter, and vanilla. Beat on medium speed until light and fluffy.
- With the mixer off, add the flour mixture. Turn the mixer on low and mix until the ingredients are well combined.
- Pour brownie batter into the prepared baking dish and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until done. Fudgy brownies are done baking when the edges appear set, but the center is still shiny, or moist.
- Let the brownies cool at room temperature.
- Spoon the mousse over the cooled brownies and spread it into an even layer. Garnish with chocolate syrup and chopped peanuts.
