Gigi's Frosted Chocolate-Mocha-
Rum Nut Squares

1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
2 cups sugar
4 ounces bitter (unsweetened)
chocolate, melted
4 eggs
1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
Pinch of salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Cream butter and sugar. Add melted chocolate. Stir in eggs, one
at a time. Add flour, salt and vanilla. Fold in nuts. Bake 35 minutes
at 325 degrees F in a square baking pan which has been greased
and lined with wax paper. Cool 10 minutes and turn out on flat
platter. Frost when completely cool.

Frosting:
4 ounces unsalted butter
3 ounces semisweet chocolate, melted
3/4 to 1 pound confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon rum
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
1 teaspoon instant coffee
Half-and-Half

Blend softened butter and confectioner's sugar with rum, vanilla and
coffee. Add melted chocolate and pinch of salt. You won't need much
half-and-half, just enough to make a spreadable consistency, about 1 tablespoon or so. Delicious with fresh strawberries or raspberries
Romanoff and Champagne.
