I don't think I've ever had anything like this brownie, but I'm so glad I tried this recipe on a whim.  It was listed in my Betty Crocker Cookbook as "lowfat" (what!?  A lowfat brownie!) and as it turns out is really fast and really easy to throw together.  Oh, and did I mention delicious.  Kevin and I were both impressed with these chewy bars of goodness.  I hope you are too!
Butterscotch Brownies
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
2 Tbsp. milk
1 large egg
1 cup flour
1/2 cup chopped nuts, if desired (I left this out)
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
Heat oven to 350 degrees.  Grease bottom and sides of an 8 inch square pan.
In 1-1/2 quart saucepan, melt butter over low heat.  Stir in brown sugar, vanilla, milk, and egg and remove from heat.  Stir in remaining ingredients (using a wire whisk is helpful here).  Spread in pan.
Bake 25 minutes or until golden brown.  Cool at least 5 minutes in pan on wire rack.
Yields: 16 brownies
you had these at the party right? I never ate one.... I did eat all the snickerdoodles you sent home with me and have only 3 rolls left.
