Brown Sugar Brownies

Kiddo #4 surprised us with Brown Sugar Brownies the other day.  They were SO good.  This is definitely a must-make recipe for brownie lovers.  :-)

1/2 cups (1 stick) butter, softened to room temperature
2 cups firmly packed dark brown sugar (we only had light in the house and it was awesome!)
2 eggs, well beaten
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup pecan pieces (optional)
Confectioner's sugar for sprinkling

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.  In a large bowl, cream the softened butter; add the brown sugar and eggs.


Mix thoroughly; add the flour and baking powder and blend.  Stir in the vanilla and nuts.  Pour the misture into a well-greased 8-inch square baking pan and bake for 35 to 40 minutes.  Cool in the pan, then cut into squares


and sprinkle with the confectioners' sugar, if desired.

Enjoy!  :-)
