Brownies

2 squares chocolate

½ teaspoon salt

I/4 cup fat

½ cup flour

1 cup white sugar

½ cup nuts

1 egg

Melt chocolate and add it to the melted fat. Add sugar, egg, salt and flour. Mix in chopped nuts, pour in greased baking-pans, and bake at 360° F. about twenty-five minutes. They will look half baked, but mark off in squares or strips when you take them from the oven, and they will harden as they cool. Remove from the pans when cool. Serve with afternoon tea. These cookies resemble fudge in taste and appearance.
