 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    2      sticks        unsalted butter
    4      ounces        unsweetened chocolate
    2      cups          sugar
    1      teaspoon      vanilla
    3                    eggs
    1      cup           cake flour
    1 1/2  teaspoons     salt
      1/4  cup           walnut pieces
                         FROSTING:
    4      ounces        semisweet chocolate
   12                    walnuts
 
 Melt one stick of butter with the four ounces unsweetened chocolate.  Let
 cool.  Cream the remaining one stick of butter with sugar, salt, and cake
 flour.  Add the eggs slowly and blend until smooth.  Add the melted
 chocolate mixture, the vanilla and the walnuts.  Fold in by hand with a
 rubber spatula.  Spray sides and bottom of an 8-inch square pan.  Pour
 the brownie mixture into the pan and spread out evenly with your spatula.
  Bake at 350 degress for 30 to 40 minutes.  You may also use a 9-by-13
 pan, but brownies will be thinner.  Adjust your time accordingly.  Cool
 and cut into 12 servings.  Top each brownie with a whole walnut and
 drizzle with melted semisweet chocolate.  Serve cold or warm with ice
 cream and hot fudge sauce.  Recipe can be doubled.  Use a 12-by-16-by-1
 inch pan.
