Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°. Grease a 9x13” baking pan. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine butter and brown sugar; cool slightly. Beat in eggs (beat one egg at a time for 3 minutes each – makes the texture of the final product is much better and bakes lighter).
In a separate bowl combine flour, baking powder and salt; add to sugar mixture and mix well. Stir in nuts and chocolate chips.
Pour into prepared pan. Bake for 28 minutes only, even if they don’t look done. Cool completely then cut into 48 squares. When they are at room temperature they are very gooey inside.

Personal Notes:
