1/2 c. butter
4 oz. unsweetened chocolate
4 eggs at 70 degrees
1/4 tsp. salt
2 c. sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1 c. sifted flour
1 c. pecans or walnuts, chopped

Melt butter and chocolate over low heat then COOL. Beat eggs and salt until light in color and foamy in texture. Add gradually and continue beating until well creamed the sugar and vanilla. With a few swift strokes of a mixing spoon, combine the cooled chocolate mixture with the eggs and sugar. Before mixture becomes uniformly colored fold in by hand the flour. Again before the flour is uniformly colored, stir in gently the nut meats. DO NOT OVER MIX. Bake in a greased 9 x 13 inch pan about 25 minutes at 350 degrees. DO NOT OVER BAKE.
