Dark and chewy brownies.

3/4 cup of butter or margarine
4 (1 ounce) squares of unsweetened chocolate
2 cups of sugar
4 eggs
1 1/2 cups of unsifted flour
1/2 tsp of salt
1 1/2 tsps of vanilla
1 3/4 cups coarsely chopped pecans

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.

Melt the butter and chocolate in a large, heavy saucepan over the lowest heat.

Remove from heat and mix in the remaining ingredients in the order listed, beating well after each addition.

Pour the batter into a greased 9x9x2 inch pan and bake for 40 minutes until brownies just begin to pull away from the sides of the pan.

Cool the pan of brownies upright on a wire rack until they are room temperature then cut in 16 squares.

They are about 350 calories per brownie.

*These are nothing like Alice’s Restaurant brownies.. you won’t need to go to drug rehab after eating them! :)
