Finally! Blondies Like They Should Be - cooking recipe

Ingredients

6 tablespoons margarine
1 3/4 cups brown sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla
2 large eggs
1 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 cup mini chocolate chip

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Melt margarine in a glass mixing bowl, in the microwave. (\"Zap\" on LOW power until it looks melted).
Stir in brown sugar; add vanilla; add eggs.
Stir in flour and baking powder; stir in chocolate chips.
Spread/pour batter into a 9 x 13\" baking pan.
Bake 19 minutes. (Until toothpick inserted 2\" from edge comes out clean)Blondies will firm as they cool.
Cool completely in pan on a wire rack.
Variations:
Sometimes I substitute the 3/4 cup chocolate chips for 1/2 cup butterscotch chips. I think that too much of the butterscotch flavor can be overpowering.
My second idea is a little more unconventional as far as blondies go. Omit the chocolate chips, stir in some cinnamon, allspice and ginger.
