Favorite Fudge Brownies

This is another gem from my good ol' BH & G cookbook. It's so simple, yet it never disappoints. And you make it all in one pan for easy cleanup. These brownies are rich and delicious. Great a la mode or by themselves! Made them last night to satisfy that chocolate craving (it's not a pregnant thing...it's a constant thing).

Ingredients

• 1/2 C butter or margarine
• 2 oz unsweetened chocolate (OR 6 T cocoa powder plus 2 T oil)
• 2 eggs
• 1 C sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 3/4 C all-purpose flour
• 1/2 C chopped nuts

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. Grease an 8x8x2 baking pan (or thereabouts); set aside. In a medium saucepan melt butter and chocolate over low heat. Remove from heat. Stir in eggs, sugar, and vanilla. Using a wooden spoon, beat lightly just till combined. Stir in flour and nuts.
3. Spread batter in prepared baking pan. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes.
