Yummy! You can't go wrong with butter and brown sugar. These are so easy and are a new favorite of my Hubby. I made them as directed only omitting the powdered sugar dusting. Made for the Gimme 5 tag game.

    Nice bar cookie. Very easy to make. I did bake 20 minutes but the ends were a bit too done. I will check at 17 minutes next time. Thanks for posting Lainey.

    I loved these chewies because I was able to mix them up in the saucepan and pour them into the baking dish. It only got a pot, a spatula and a baking dish dirty so there were few dishes to wash and clean up after. This went together very quickly and very well. It was prepared, baked and eaten within 30 minutes!!! The texture was perfect. Not too thick and not too thin. They were sweet without being overbearingly sweet as some of these brown sugar brownies can be. Thanks Lainey...I'll be using this recipe again.

    I have to agree with Sherrybeth on this one. Loved the fact that these could be made in one saucepan and then poured into the baking dish...easy to make, easy clean up and yummy to eat. Chewy, not too sweet yet plenty sweet enough. I'm afraid we'll be eating way too many of these Thanks for posting Lainey!
