I saw the responses for a blondie recipe and I decided to send in my Sad Cake recipe which actually is a type of a blondie. It's called a sad cake because, much like brownies, it rises during baking and then falls (sadly, lol). This was one of my kids favorite treats and I baked them often as they were growing up, sometimes just plain, sometimes I added nuts and coconut, sometimes miniature chocolate chips, sometimes all of these. The variations are endless but they're all delicious.

Sad Cake

2 c. biscuit baking mix
1 (16 oz.) box brown sugar
4 eggs
1/3 c. oil
1 c. shredded coconut
1 c. chopped pecans
1 t. vanilla

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream eggs and sugar. Add remaining ingredients and mix together. Pour into lightly greased and floured 13"x9" pan. Bake at or 35 minutes.

(Note: miniature chocolate chips may also be added to this recipe.)
