Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease an 8" cast iron skillet with butter, set aside.
  2. BLONDIE: In a large bowl combine the brown sugar, butter, egg and vanilla. Add in the flour, baking powder and salt. Stir just until combined. Gently fold in the chopped pecans. Spread into prepared skillet and bake for 18-20 minutes.

Recipe Notes

If you don't have a cast iron skillet you can make this in a pie plate. It will be a little thinner and start checking the blondie at 15 minutes.
