Recipe - Maida Heatters Palm Beach Brownies

6 ounce Unsweetened chocolate
1 cup Unsalted butter
5 lg Eggs
1 tablespoon Vanilla
1 teaspoon Almond extract
One fourth teaspoon Salt
2 One half teaspoon Instant espresso or other
instant coffee powder
3 Three fourths cup Granulated sugar
1 2/3 cup Sifted flour
8 ounce Walnut halves (which I omit)

Line a 13x9x2" pan with foil. Grease. Melt chocolate with butter in top of
double boiler over hot water and medium heat. Beat eggs, extracts, salt,
coffee, and sugar for 10 minutes at high speed. At low speed, beat in
chocolate until just mixed. Add flour; beat just until mixed. Stir in nuts,
if you are using them. Bake at 425 degrees for 35 minutes, reversing pan
from back to front after 15 minutes. When done, cake will have a thick,
crisp crust but a pick inserted in the center will come out wet and covered
with chocolate. Do not bake any longer. Let stand at room temperature until
cool. cover with a rack and invert. Turn right side up. let stand overnight
(or refrigerate), then cut. Wipe knife blade after each cut.
