1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
3/4 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
[*]Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line an 8-inch-square baking pan with nonstick aluminum foil.
[*]Combine 1 cup of the chocolate chips (half the bag) & butter in a medium-size microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on HIGH for 1 minute. Stir until smooth. Whisk in sugar, then eggs. Stir in flour & salt until smooth. Fold in 1/2 cup of the chopped walnuts & the vanilla. Transfer batter to a prepared pan.
[*]Bake brownie @ 350 degrees for 23-25 minutes. Finely chop remaining 2 tablespoons walnuts.
[*]Sprinkle remaining 1 cup chocolate chips over brownie & return to oven for 2 minutes. Remove from oven, & spread melted chips until smooth, to form a "frosting." Top with finely chopped walnuts. Refrigerate 20 minutes to firm chocolate, then cut into squares. Store @ room temperature.
