Ingredients:

• 2 2/3 cups all-purpose flour

• 2 teaspoons baking powder

• 1 teaspoon salt

• 2 cups packed brown sugar

• 1 cup butter, at room temperature

• 2 eggs, at room temperature

• 1 Tablespoon vanilla

• 2 Tablespoons white sugar

• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Instructions: 

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 9 x 13 inch baking pan.

2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.

3. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the butter, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla until smooth. Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture and beat until well blended.

4. Fold in your chosen mix-ins (this time I went with white chocolate chips & pumpkin spice chips)

5. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.

6. In a small bowl, combine the white sugar and cinnamon.

7. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the batter in the baking pan.

8. Bake for 25 - 30 minutes or until the surface springs back when gently pressed. Remove from oven and let cool slightly on a wire rack. While still warm, cut into squares with a sharp knife...and enjoy!
