1cupbuttersoftened
2eggs
1tablespoonvanilla
2 2/3cupsflour
2teaspoonsbaking powder

2tablespoonssugar
1tablespooncinnamon
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 340 degrees.
Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan and set aside (an easy trick is to use the empty butter wrappers from the recipe to grease it).
In a large mixing bowl, beat together the brown sugar, butter, eggs and vanilla.
Beat in the flour, baking powder and salt until the mixture is smooth and everything is completely incorporated.
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan and then evenly sprinkle the sugar and cinnamon over the top (in full disclosure, I just used a spoon and sprinkled both until I felt satisfied I had good coverage, so I likely used a bit more cinnamon than is listed in the ingredients list).
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let the brownies cool for about 20 minutes and then slice into bars and store in an airtight container.
