Ingredients

• 4 ounces bitter chocolate, chopped

Preparation

Step 1

Line an 8-inch-by-8-inch pan with foil. Butter the bottom and sides of the pan generously.

Combine chocolate, sugar, evaporated milk, salt and vanilla in a large saucepan. Cook slowly over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the mixture begins to boil. Boil 5 minutes, stirring constantly.

Remove pan from heat. Fold in butter and marshmallows. Allow to cool 25 minutes. Fold in graham cracker crumbs and walnuts. Pour into foil-lined pan. Let stand until cool and set. Cut into pieces.

Store between sheets of wax paper in a covered tin.
