ingredients
- 1⁄2 cup butter
- 2 (1 ounce) unsweetened chocolate squares (no substitutions)
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup sugar
- 1⁄2 cup sifted flour
- 1⁄4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chopped walnuts (or other nuts of choice) (optional)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit. Butter an 8 x8 x 2" pan.
- Melt butter and chocolate together over a double-boiler.
- In a medium bowl, beat eggs well. Add sugar gradually and beat thoroughly until incorporated. Add chocolate mixture and beat well.
- In a separate bowl, mix sifted flour, baking powder and salt. Add nuts (if using). Stir into chocolate mixture and add vanilla. Mix well.
- Place in buttered pan and bake for about 25 minutes. Cut into squares while still warm. Makes 9 squares.
- NOTE: If you want to make it in a 9 x 13" pan, triple the recipe. This I normally do when making it for parties or to feed 3 hungry nephews.
- Note that the chocolate squares noted in ingredients above are 1 ounce for each square, therefore the total is 2 ounces.

<p>Update: ?I've moved on out of food.com due to the changes to the site and deletion of interactive food games and forums (which was the staying-power for many of its members). I will now be interacting on recipezazz where there are cooking games and forums and where eventually I will be posting my recipes.?</p>
