Fudgy Bittersweet Brownies

Ingredients

3/4 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 squares chocolate, unsweetened
1/2 cup margarine
1 cup sugar
2 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup chopped nuts, optional

Directions

Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt. Melt the chocolate and margarine (or you can use butter) in a pot (not the small one) over low heat. Remove from the heat and stir to blend. Beat in sugar and eggs until well blended. Stir in vanilla. Stir in flour mixture just until blended. Stir in the nuts. Spread in a greased 8X8 or 9X9 pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes, or just until a slight imprint remains when touched lightly in the center.
