Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
- 1 stick butter
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup broken up walnut or pecan pieces (for better flavor, toast the nuts at 350 F for about 5 minutes)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch salt
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 325F.
Melt butter in a saucepan with cocoa and stir until smooth.
Remove from heat and let cool for a few minutes.
Whisk in eggs, one at a time.
Stir in vanilla.
In a separate bowl, combine sugar, flour, nuts and salt.
Add to the cocoa-butter mixture. Stir until just combined.
Pour into prepared pan and bake 30-40 minutes. (Do not overbake: Center should still be a little gooey.)
Let cool completely before cutting into squares. If foil lining is used, lift from pan and cut into 16 squares on a cutting board.
