List of Ingredients
1 cup (2 sticks) butter or margarine or butter
4 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate
4 (1 ounce) squares semisweet chocolate
2 1/4 cups granulated sugar
6 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
Praline Topping (below)
1/2 cup pecans, toasted and coarsely choppedRecipe
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 13 x 9-inch metal baking pan with foil; grease foil.
In heavy 3-quart saucepan over low heat, melt margarine or butter and chocolates, stirring frequently. Remove saucepan from heat. With wire whisk, beat in sugar, then eggs, until well blended. Stir in vanilla extract and salt. Stir in flour just until blended. Spread batter evenly in pan. Bake 35 minutes (wooden pick inserted in brownies will not come out clean). Cool brownies in pan on wire rack. If not using brownies within 1 day, cover cooled brownies with foil and refrigerate or freeze for longer storage.
Prepare Praline Topping. With metal spatula, spread topping over room-temperature brownies; sprinkle with pecans. Cut brownies lengthwise into 8 strips, then cut each strip crosswise into 8 pieces.
