Brilliant Brownies in a Bag

I often make this when I have last minute guests and no time to run to the store.
It makes a more cake like brownie. To fancy it up I either spread it with frosting and crushed cookies or mix in some chocolate chips.
- of course all embellishments only add more sugar/calories :)

Recipe Yields: 2 dozen

Ingredients
2 1/4 cups white sugar
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup chopped pecans (if desired)
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt

Directions
1. Mix all above ingredients together in a 1 quart zipper bag. If desired you may shake bag to mix all ingredients together.

2. Empty brownie mix into large bowl and mix thoroughly. Add 3/4 cup of butter or margarine and 4 slightly beaten eggs. Mix until completely blended. Spread batter into a lightly greased or sprayed 9 x 13 inch pan.

Bake at 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) for 30 minutes or until done. Cool in pan. Cut into 2 inch squares.
