Chocolate Raspberry Brownie Cake

Andee found this recipe and makes it every year for my birthday cake. It's very fast and easy and delicious. We recommend serving it with vanilla ice cream and raspberry sauce.

1/2 cup butter
3 oz unsweetened chocolate (3 squares)
1 1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup walnut or pecan pieces
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla
2/3 cup flour
Fresh raspberries
Powdered sugar

In a 2-3 qt. pan over low heat stir butter and chocolate until just melted (about 5 min.). remove fro heat and mix in sugar, nuts eggs and vanilla. Add flour and stir well to mix.
Spread batter in a buttered, floured 8-9" springform pan. Distribute 1 cup whole berries around top, gently press into batter.
Bake at 350° until top at outside edge is cracked and feels firm to touch (about 45 min.) Let cool in pan on a rack.
Remove rim and set cake on a plate. Dust with powdered sugar. Serve with ice cream, fresh berries, raspberry sauce. 10 to 12 servings
