Preparation Steps

• In a large bowl, cream together the peanut butter, softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and creamy.
• Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
• Press the dough evenly into a greased 8x8-inch baking dish.
• In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and heavy cream. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth and fully melted.
• Pour the chocolate ganache over the peanut butter base and spread evenly.
• Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the chocolate is set.
• Cut into 16 squares and serve chilled.
