I can't decide whether to call them "Little Debbie Harrys" or "The Von Blondies". You could just eat a stick of butter and dip it in brown sugar between bites, but this is messier and takes more time. Don't thank me just yet.
Preheat the oven to 350F. Butter a small baking pan (9x9 or less). Melt 1/2 stick
Butter (that's 1/4 of a cup, but if you use 1/2 cup by mistake it will only make things better) in a small saucepan over low heat. Add 1/3 cup granulated
Sugar and 2/3 cup
Brown Sugar and stir until dissolved. Remove from heat. While this is cooling, sift together 1/2 cup
Flour, 1/2 tsp
Sea Salt, and 1 tsp
Baking Powder. Note the Oxford Comma. Add 1
Egg and a generous teaspoon of
Vanilla to the butter/sugar mixture and combine well. Gradually whisk in the flour. This is the point where you might want to add things that you like in brownies. I added
Cacao Nibs. Pour the batter into the pan and spread evenly. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until done. It's done when you say it is. They will pretty much not stop being sticky no matter how long they cool, so eat them as soon as it will not scald you to do so. Extra Confexecutioner credit for topping with unsweetened hand-whipped
Cream. Serves 1-12.
