It's not required, but this is when it's very nice to own a stand mixer.


8- 1 ounce squares of unsweetened chocolate
1 cup butter
5 eggs
3 cups sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla
1-1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt*, optional
2-1/2 cups chopped pecans or walnuts, toasted

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Melt chocolate and butter in a saucepan over low heat; set aside. In a mixer, beat eggs, sugar and vanilla at high speed for 10 minutes**. Blend in chocolate, flour and salt until just mixed. Stir in the nuts. Pour into a greased 9 X 13 inch pan.

Bake for 35-40 minutes. (Don't overbake.) Cool and frost if desired, but that is not necessary.
