Brown Sugar Chewy Brownies
Chewy brownies with a rich brown sugar flavor, chocolate chips, and crunchy nuts, perfect for satisfying dessert cravings or sharing at gatherings.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Mix Bisquick or Jiffy mix flour, brown sugar, eggs, and water in a bowl.
- Stir in chocolate chips and nuts.
- Pour the batter into a greased 9 x 12-inch pan.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25 to 30 minutes.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract or a pinch of salt to the batter. If you don’t have chocolate chips, chopped chocolate bars work well too. For a nut-free version, simply omit the pecans or peanuts. You can even swap Bisquick for all-purpose flour if desired, but the texture may vary slightly.
Serving Suggestions
These brownies are perfect on their own but pair beautifully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent dessert. For a special touch, drizzle some warm chocolate sauce on top or serve alongside a fresh fruit salad. They also complement coffee or a glass of milk wonderfully.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, refrigerate them for up to a week. To reheat, place a brownie in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds for a warm, gooey treat. You can also enjoy them cold or at room temperature.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different type of flour instead of Bisquick or Jiffy mix?
Yes, you can substitute all-purpose flour, but you may need to adjust the liquid slightly since Bisquick contains baking powder and salt. Consider adding 1 tablespoon of baking powder and a pinch of salt to your flour for the best results.
What if I don't have chocolate chips?
If chocolate chips are unavailable, you can chop up a chocolate bar or use cocoa powder. For cocoa powder, reduce the flour by a couple of tablespoons and add 1/4 cup more sugar to balance the bitterness.
Can I make these brownies vegan?
Yes, to make the brownies vegan, substitute eggs with a flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed mixed with 2.5 tablespoons water), and use a dairy-free chocolate chip alternative. Also, ensure that your nuts are not processed with any animal products.
