These brownies are the best dessert in my recipe box. I've even prepared them on the spur of the moment while company was over for dinner. They take just minutes to mix up, are out of the oven in half an hour and generate many compliments. -Sherry Olson, Boulder, Colorado

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 2 eggs

  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup vanilla or white chips
  • 1/2 cup chopped macadamia nuts or almonds
