4 ounces unsweetened chocolate |
4 eggs |
2 cups granulated sugar |
1 cup all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional) or 1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional) |
1 (14 ounce) bag caramels |
1/3 cup evaporated milk |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Grease a 13-by 9-inch baking pan.
3. Melt together butter and chocolate in a small saucepan or on top of a double boiler. Let cool slightly.
4. Beat eggs and sugar in a large mixing bowl. Add cooled chocolate mixture. Add flour, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir in nuts, if desired.
