Blonde Brownies

My favorite item to have on hand in my cupboard is a box of biscuit mix. There are so many more uses for it than just biscuits. You cut corners yet still come across as a homemade baker. This is a fast recipe that even the children can help you with making.

Blonde Brownies
2 cups brown sugar
4 large eggs
2 cups biscuit mix
1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Combine sugar, eggs, and biscuit mix in a bowl. Add the vanilla and stir in the nuts. Spread into a 9x13-inch (approximate) baking pan.

Bake for about 20-30 minutes until firm to the touch and golden. Cool before cutting into serving sizes.

Ideas . . .
Reduce the nuts by 1/2 cup and add white or chocolate chips.
Mix 1/2 cup peanut butter with 2 tablespoons of sugar and swirl through the batter before baking.
Reduce nuts by 1/2 cup and substitute chopped candy orange slices or even the whole candy spice drops.
