There is nothing better than the simplest recipe with loads of flavor. Sometimes I wonder why it's fair to spend far less time than expected on a recipe and turn out with a final product that quadruples the effort you put into it, but I guest it's just the little things in life... These scrumptious treats are super simple to make and are so very sweet and delicious. The batter was like a thick cake batter, but the cinnamon/sugar topping gave it a flavor of its own.

(2 PointsPlus per serving)
Ingredients1 1/3 cups flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter, at room temperature
1 egg
1/2 Tbsp vanilla
1 Tbsp white sugar
1 Tbsp cinnamon
1 Tbsp white sugar
1 Tbsp cinnamon
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 8x8 inch baking pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the butter, sugar, egg and vanilla until smooth. Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture and beat until well blended. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.
In a small bowl, combine the white sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the batter in the baking pan. (If you have sufficiently covered the pan and still have some of the cinnamon/sugar mixture left that is fine. No need to use it all up.)
