These were excellent. I used pecans and added 1/4 cup of butterscotch chips. I made them in half batches because my big pan was dirty. =P They still came out super soft and chewy. Don't grease the pan too much or they will be too greasy. If you use spray, spray and blot with a paper towel to remove excess.

I searched for a simple brownie recipe today using Bisquick and came across this one. I am very happy with the results. I did alter the recipe a bit to suit my taste tonight though... I only had 1 tsp of vanilla to use... 1 stick of butter is all I had... so I added 2 extra tblsp. of water... mixed sugar, water, eggs together first in a bowl and mixed bisquick and the Hersey powder together in a seperate bowl, then added it to the eggs mixture... then added the melted butter and stirred with a spoon... used an 8x8 glass pan... made 2 layers (1/2 of the batter on the bottom, than added 1/2 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips... next added 1/4 cup of peanut butter to the remaining batter and then spreaded it on top of the chips. Baked for 22 minutes... checked and decided to bake another 10 minutes. (baked in the center of the oven too). I am happy with the results... they are more cake like but I like them this way too. Would make them again.

I made these a few days ago with just 2 changes. 1) I used a little less bisquick to make them more gooey, and 2) I swirled in some peanut butter because my husband is a peanut butter fanatic. They were fabulous! Even my mother in law loved them!!
