Preheat oven to 350° F
Prepare a baking dish that will hold 16 halved peanut butter cups. I use an 11" x 8" dish. Grease the bottom of the dish, or line with parchment paper.
Unwrap eight peanut butter cups from their wrapper and cut them in half.
In a small bowl beat the two eggs.
In a large bowl add the brownie mix, water, oil, and the beaten eggs and mix with a spoon just blended.
Stir in the chocolate chips
Pour half of the brownie batter into the baking pan, then top with the 16-halved peanut butter cups. Pour the rest of the brownie batter over the top of the peanut butter cups and spread to cover.
Bake the brownies for 25 - 30 minutes. When done let cool for about 30 minutes then cut into squares.
Cover the leftover brownies with plastic wrap.
