5. Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. Mix until just combined.
6. Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared baking dish.
7. Place the chopped Reese’s peanut butter cups evenly over the batter.
8. Cover the peanut butter cups with the remaining brownie batter.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs.
