Ingredients

1 cup (2 sticks) margarine or butter
4 ounces unsweetened baking chocolate
2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 eggs
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Beat chocolate mixture, sugar, vanilla and eggs in medium bowl with electric mixer on medium speed 1 minute, scraping bowl occasionally. Beat in flour and salt on low speed 30 seconds, scraping bowl occasionally. Beat on medium speed 1 minute. Stir in nuts. Spread half of the batter in pan. Spread with filling. Gently spread remaining batter over filling. Drop jam by scant teaspoonfuls randomly over batter. Gently swirl through batter, filling and jam with spoon in an over-and-under motion for marbled design. Bake 55 to 65 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean cool. Cut into about 1 1/2x1-inch bars.

Healthy Hint:
Use nuts in low-fat baking in reduced amounts. Cut the amount of nuts in half, and place them on the top of the batter. The nuts will toast nicely as they bake, releasing more flavor.
