       Yield: 10 servings
  
     1/4 c  Nuts
       1    Egg
       3 tb Shortening
       1 c  Milk
       3 oz Unsweetened chocolate;
            - Premelted envelopes
     1/2 ts Vanilla
   1 1/4 c  Flour
   1 1/3 c  Sugar
   1 1/4 ts Baking powder
     1/2 ts Salt
     1/4 ts Soda
     1/2 c  Semisweet chocolate pieces
  
   Heat oven to 350~. Grease and flour baking pan,
   9x9x2". Measure nuts into blender; chop on low speed.
   Set nuts aside. In order listed, measure remaining
   ingredients except chocolate pieces into blender.
   Blend 30 seconds on high speed, stopping blender
   occasionally to scrape sides with rubber spatula.
   (Batter may be slightly lumpy). Pour batter into pan.
   Bake about 35 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in
   center comes out clean. Immediately sprinkle chocolate
   pieces over cake. Place baking sheet over pan so
   contained heat will soften chocolate pieces. Spread
   softened chocolate evenly over cake; sprinkle with
   reserved nuts. Serve warm.
    *To prepare cake with electric mixer, measure all
   ingredients except nuts and chocolate pieces into
   large mixer bowl. Blend 1/2 minute on low speed,
   scraping bowl constantly. Beat 3 minutes high speed,
   scraping bowl occasionally. Bake as directed.
    **If using self-rising flour, omit baking powder and
   salt.
