I'm going to take a different approach from the other answerers - are you adding your heath bars and nuts at the beginning of the recipe - or at the end chopped up on top?
If you are adding them at the beginning of baking - they may be keeping your mixture from rising. Those things should be added towards the end (last 5 minutes or so) of the baking time.
However - I would ask you - what does it taste like? Does it taste good - if it does - just call them bars and let them be flat.

1 T.baking? what? soda? powder?
Low volume:
Over or undermeasurement of liquids. See How to Measure.
Undermixing or extreme overmixing
Too large a pan
Oven temperature too low or too high
Not properly alternating the flour and the liquid ingredients during mixing
Cold eggs and/or butter.
Old or too little baking powder
Too much fat
Incorrect amount of water.
Falls:
Over or underbeating – too much or too little air is incorporated into batter.
Underbaking - oven temperature too low and / or too short a baking time. Probably not thoroughly cooked. Bake longer or reduce the heat by 25 degrees F and bake longer.
Over or under measurement of liquid or too much sugar. See How to Measure.
Too small a pan
Excessive jarring or moving of the cake during baking.
Opening the oven door before cake sets
Oven temperature too low.
Too much baking powder or baking soda Keep recipe close to 1 teaspoon baking powder or 1/4 teaspoon baking soda per cup of flour.
Excessive mixing of the batter.
Beaten egg whites - When you beat egg whites, their proteins unwind and join together loosely, making them very unstable. Make sure at least one of the egg whites is not beaten, but added with the liquid ingredients instead, to help stabilize its structure.

Is this for a cake or a bar cookie?
Sounds like it has 1 C too much of the sugar and 1/2 C. too much of the butter.

It would help to know what you are trying to make. The brown sugar, baking soda, maybe the milk and butter sound WAY off.

It sounds a bit heavy on the sugar, that might be the problem.
Eggs help to rise, if the mixture is not too wet, try another egg in it.
Hope it works out and rises like a dream.

try using bread soda instead of baking soda. the sour milk is acidic which may reduce the effects of baking soda. bread soda will be ideal here. also you could have too little flour for the amount of other things.
Btw flower is what grow is in the garden, you mean flour?

Like many answering here, we are not sure what you are trying to make. As far as rising .. you have provided no real levening agent, try adding One T of baking powder.

dont know what you are trying to bake but depending where you are the altitude you are at can make a big difference. recipies are altered for different places. that could be another reason.
