Chocolate Saucepan Brownies

6 tbs butter
2 oz unsweetened chocolate or bittersweet
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
Optional: 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts

Heat oven to 325°.  Grease and flour an 8-inch square baking pan. Line the pan with parchment paper, if desired.

Put the butter and chocolate in a saucepan and place it over low heat. Cook, stirring constantly until the butter and chocolate are melted. Turn the heat off and let the mixture cool slightly. Whisk the sugar and vanilla into the chocolate mixture.

Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking after each addition. Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl.  Stir to blend.

Stir the flour mixture into the chocolate batter mixture. Stir in the chopped nuts, if using, blending well.

Spread the batter in the prepared pan.

Bake the brownies in the preheated oven for about 25 min.  Makes 16
