  • 6 squares unsweetened chocolate
  • 1/2 pound butter
  • 3 cups sugar
  • 6 beaten eggs
  • flour (1 1/2 cups)

Method

Melt 6 squares unsweetened chocolate with 1/2 pound butter.

Add 3 cups sugar. Add 6 beaten eggs 1 at a time.

Fold in flour (1 1/2 cups) Bake at 375° 350° for 35-40 45-50 minutes (? 25 in Barbara’s oven…)
