1 cup packed light brown sugar
3 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour

and peanut butter. Add granulated sugar and
brown sugar, beat well. Add eggs, one at a
time, beating well after each addition. Blend
in vanilla. Stir together flour, baking powder
and salt; mix into peanut butter mixture,
blending well. Spread half of batter into
prepared pan. Spoon syrup over top. Carefully
spread with remaining batter. Swirl with metal
